A concert by the legendary Korean folk singers Song Chang-sik, Choe Baek Ho, and Yui Kjong will be held at Chungnam University's Jeongsimhwa International Cultural Center on the the 3rd and 4th of October 2008. The three artisitis were associated with the so called t'ong guitar movement' which was a form of Korean music developed in the early 1970s. It was heavily influenced by American pop music, and artists in the genre were considered Korean versions of American folk singers, such as Joan Baez and Bob Dylan. The musical form originally started as a solo singer-songwriter performing with an acoustic guitar. It was allied with student movements of the 1970s in song clubs such as "Maeari" at Seoul National University and in Norae Undong ("Song Movement"), caused the embracing of popular genres by Korean intellectuals. Serious academic inquiries in Korean popular music started in 1984, and continue today [wikipedia]
