I found almost nothing about this artist, but I was able to hear 5 tracks of him of which at least 3 if not all are definitely worth checking: * 웃음짓는 희망 / Laughing Hope (1936) * 청춘 일기 / Youth Diary (1936) * 청춘의 개가 / Young Dog (1937) 남자의 눈물 / Men's Tears (1938) "Laughing Hope" is an up tempo marching trot song which features a happy whistling theme. It is very uplifting and gay. It's instrumental part is very inflicting too. It is amongst the most happy music from those days.

I guess this is a reissue of an original old LP (with 12 songs), containing songs that often have folk songs origins, and which show a funny marching song/working song related happy and gay nature, occasionally with also a more melancholic song. In that way the tonal and singing variation in the songs is pretty varied. The arrangements, with strings, brass instruments and more show the best kind of arrangements where in each few seconds other instruments dominate at occasions

Here he sings with broken effects in her voice, possibly expressing the cold. The song itself is based upon old trot but has as much of a strong cabaret expression. The band of course has learned its jazz-like flavours. Seei

(1938) 13 꼭 오세요 / Please come (VICTOR 1207) (1938) The first track is a happy musical-like song with two vocalists. “Please come” is a sad waltz with somewhat jazzy band, but with most focus on the singing and expressions of a rather spoken part with a certain 4/4 stepping rhythm. 유성기로 듣던 가요사 (1925~1945) [Disc 6] * 6 왜 몰라주오 / Why don't you know?

The recordings of Kim Hae-Song show a lot more cabaret, influences in old time jazz, and influences from American broadway film music, which shows another interesting and expressive aspect of music from those days.

V.A - 유성기로 듣던 일제시대 풍자.해학송 / The satire of Japanese imperialists heard during the Meteor / Domido (?) period The Pork Song double CD compilation is from the same area of influence, still is the winner of presenting the music of these days that was into song cabaret, satire and of course jazz. This extra CD is a welcome addition and completes it with a few extra tracks of this style while there are also overlaps, including some of the essentials. Very funny it is when we hear t
