How to sing it

Sixteen gentle bars of two beats, four lines of four. The second line ends on two bars of C7 and waits; the last two lines move every bar and come home on F. Tender, never loud.

Why this song is free to play

The tune Gohyang-ui Bom was composed by Hong Nan-pa in 1927. He died in 1941, so on Korea’s life-plus-70 basis the term ended in 2011; the 1927 date also clears the US rule for pre-1930 works. The words are by a later writer and are not shipped. Free everywhere.
