English translation of its lyrics is under the clip, among the comments

 

 

판소리(Pansori) is one of the Korean traditional music. It is said to express Korean people's joys and deep sorrows.

 

춘향가(Chunhyang-ga) is the most famous song among the Pansori pieces, but the full version is too long--it takes 4 to 5 hours.

Also, unfortunately, the full song is hard to listen to with full concentration.

 

 

Modern artists are trying to give variety to traditional music, including the singer in the video clip, Goh Yong-yeol. I recommend his performances as a gateway to Korean classic music.
