Chapter 2 Ancient Songs
One of the works is a public service
01 What did people in the past think when they saw a wide and deep river or sea?
02 What do you think of when you see a wide and deep river or sea?
▶Meet the work
Gongmudohaga (Gongmudohaga)
Im-ah, don't cross that water.
Im finally crossed the water.
He fell into the water and died.
What should I do with the person who has passed away now?
Original text in Chinese characters
公無渡河 (公無渡河)
Crossing the River (Gonggyeongdoha)
Fall into the river and die (Tahaisha)
What is Dangnaegongha?
Modern language interpretation
Dear, please don't try to cross.
But in the end, you went into the water.
The waves were so strong that he was swept away.
Now what should we do about this?
▶View the work
“Gongmudogaga” is the first Korean poem that has been passed down.
The title 'Gongmu Dohaga' was created because the poem begins with 'Gongmu Doha (公無渡河)'.
'Gong (公)' is a word that calls someone, 'mu (無)' means 'do not do something', and 'doha (渡河)' means 'cross a river'.
The story about this song goes like this:
"During the Gojoseon period, a boatman named Gwakrijago got up at dawn and was rowing his boat when a man with white hair tried to cross the river carrying a bottle of alcohol.
His wife followed and tried to stop him, but he eventually drowned and died.
His wife then composed and sang this song while playing an instrument called a gonghu (a harp-like instrument).
After the woman finished singing, she threw herself into the water and died.
When Gwak Ri-ja returned, he told his wife Yeo-ok about the song and told her about it. Yeo-ok was sad and sang the song while riding the gong.
After that, this song was spread throughout the world.
Source: "Haedong History"
"Gongmudogaga" sings of the sorrow over the death and separation of a loved one.
The deep sadness expressed in this poem can be called 'han'.
This poem is the first lyric poem in Korea and is famous for dealing with the traditional emotion of 'han'.
