황성옛터

황성옛터
Music: Jun Su-rin (전수린 全壽麟)
Lyrics: Wang Pyong (왕평 王平)
Singer: Nam In-su (남인수)

This music was composed in 1928 while the authors toured Man-wol-dae (만월대 滿月臺), the ruins of a Koryo* palace. It became a hit overnight and spread throughout the Korean peninsula like a prairie fire. The Japanese attempted, in vain, to suppress the song.

The site (shown below) is located by the Songak mountains that embrace today's Kaesung.

*the old Kingdom of Korea, from which the name "Korea" itself is derived.

Lyrics reproduced from Korean War Songs. No translation is provided. The title means: "The ruins of Whang-sung fortress".
황성 옛터에 밤이되니 월색만 고요해
