30년대 신민요 - V.A. "Pork Song"
This compilation proves how the new folk music from the 20s/30s was highly original and clearly the foundation for the continuation of this new tradition during the 50s even thought they filtered out the Japanese singing variations further even though it is highly joyful and beautiful to hear them enrich the music. But the music still is a mixture of a variety in styles in singing.
The band can have a front folk band (banjo, acoustic guitar, Japenese flute), while the band is the old time western ballroom combo (strings, brass, flute, clarinet solos, accordion). Here and there Korean percussion element comes trough. The rhythms are often a bit humpapa-like, light and pleasant, a perfect accompaniment despite its limits.
The fourth track shows a bass rhythm, which in combination with the song gives it almost a rock potential with a blues rhythm on bass.
I also would like to take out track 5 of the second CD, with Japanese flute and a singing that shows a gifted and varied intonation with very special ethnical variations in the singing, taking the time and space to develop itself.
The 9th track of CD2 has a responding voice that imitates a goat, possibly an animal song.
A really enjoyable album of an era that lived on until the 60s, except for some unfortunate elements. Very good!!

I must say that after all these years, this double CD remains amongst my favourite releases of Korea. It’s subtle jazz, refreshing arrangements, good sound quality, original singing technique and unique interpretation and approach still stands out as a rather one of its kind performance.
Essential tracks are at least Track CD1 3-5, 7-9,11 ; CD2 1,3

Korean Urban Culture and Popular Music in the 1930s, Zhang, Eu-Jeong
This study has examined the relationship between urban culture and popular music in the 1930s. The second section explored how popular music formed centering on the phonograph within the popular media and the significance of the arrival of the phonograph. Without question, the phonograph contributed to the popularization of music. The public not only encountered a diverse range of popular music through the phonograph, but they were also able to enjoy popular songs. This study then examined what kind of music was played mostly in the tea rooms and cafes through the sources available from the period. From the sources, one can tell that the cafes that operated like bars mostly played jazz, and the tea rooms that operated like tea houses played an extremely diverse range of music, because the music differed according to the location of the establishment and the tastes of their customers. In the third section, this study showed how the popular songs described the urban culture at the time through an examination of some actual works. The popular songs that described the urban culture can be generally divided into two categories of songs of laughter and songs of tears. Usually within the songs of laughter, the poetic ego satirized the urban space that newly appeared within the urban culture and the behavior of city residents who wandered within. In contrast, within the songs of tears the poetic ego often expressed the depression and sadness of that he or she encountered while experiencing the urban culture.
In this way, this study has examined the mutual relationship between urban culture and popular music in the 1930s and revealed how the people of the period felt about the city. The people at the time did not simply welcome or adopt a hopeless attitude about the urban culture. At times, they mocked urban culture and at times they expressed the despair they felt while experiencing the urban culture. Due to the limitations of space, this study cannot include thediverse images of the people who lived everyday lives at the time. Yet this study should have significance, for during the process of investigating the relationship between urban culture and popular music, it provided a brief glimpse of the people of the time wandering through the duality of emotions engendered by colonialism and modernity.

There were only a few companies that released records in Korea until 1930, but by the early 1930's this changed significantly. Around the same time in the early 1930s, several companies entered the music market, like Polydor, Okay, Sierran, and Taiping Records (Daihei, Giraffe). At the time, so many companies started producing music albums, also the demand for records was greatly increased. The explosive growth of the music market in such a short period of time reveals Korea's national sentiment to love music.

OK Record was founded by Lee Chul in 1932 and released the album from 1933 until Liberation. During the Japanese occupation, the company was the most successful record company established by Koreans and competed with Polydor Records. From 1932 to 1937, OK Records did not have a record production facility, so records were produced using facilities of other record companies, such as Imperial Gramophone Corporation. And around 1938, the Imperial Gramophone Company took over and operated OK Record. OK Record released the record in two classes: regular (black and white) and high-grade (red). By supplying records at a significantly lower price than other companies, the company has been successful in the music market for a long time, leading the popularization of meteor recordings.

This paper looks into the musical traits of the “jazzsong” genre of the 1930s, and how it mixed with other existing genres such as trot and shinminyo(new folk song). Until recently, jazzsong was understood to be adaptations of Western popular songs that were not completely Japanized. In this paper, I analyzed several jazzsong pieces written by Korean composers to highlight the musical characteristics of the genre, and looked into how jazzsong merged with the musical grammar of trot(yuhaengga) and shinminyo that had already undergone the process of localization. First, in the case of jazzsongs written by Korean composers, the melody of the pentatonic scale were written and arranged in the big-band style of early jazz music. This contrasts with the fact that most adapted foreign jazz pieces were written in the diatonic scale. Second, since the late 1930s, blues became popular as a sub-genre of jazzsong, and it is evident that the lamenting tone of the blues leaned in many aspects to trot`s mode and melodramatic mood. Third, there existed a musical style that combined the shinminyo`s grammar and jazz`s style. Minyo`s mode and beat coexisted with major-minor mode, merging with the jazz style. This can be regarded as the mixing of shinminyo and jazz. As such, the mixing of jazz with other genres can be understood to be a result of the attempts to localize jazz which was perceived to be relatively new and unfamiliar compared to trot or shinminyo, which were already popular to the public. It can be regarded as acculturation of jazz to be settled and localized within Korean popular music.

The aim of this paper is to examine the musical value of the new folk songs on gramophone records from 1930s by classifying and analyzing their composition. Previously, the new folk songs have been described as ‘alteration and distortion of traditional music’ or ‘hybrids of traditional folk songs and popular songs’. However this paper shows that the new folk songs are essentially rooted in traditional music and combined with diverse musical influences from different regions including Japan and the West. Although this was a product of the distinct characteristics of the Japanese colonial era and the time of enlightenment, a higher portion of the new folk songs contains traditional musical elements. These results lead to the conclusion that a re-evaluation of the contribution of the succession and development of traditional music and the musical value of the new folk songs is needed.
