Saetaryeong
Saetaryeong is a Jeolla Province folk song. The origin of this piece is unknown, but it became popular after it was transformed and included in a pansori piece, Jeokbyeokga, by the great singer I Dong-baek of the late Joseon Dynasty. The text describes a scene in which various birds cry on a sunny spring day.
