Do Korea has to modernize Korean traditional Music? Do Korea has to modernize Korean traditional Music? Korea was ruled by King until 1910. and then Japanese colony for 35 years. A lot of Korean traditional things were destroyed by Japan. If someone ask me about Do Korea has to modernize Korean traditional Music? I’d like to say “Definitely YES” Koreans have to modernize Koreans Traditional Music, at the same time, must preserve it. Even destroyed buildings have to be preserve and record that’s why as a history facts. Why we have to modernize? I’ll talk about this for example. Have you heard about “Ondol” That’s Korean traditional Heating system. The West heats the air in the room and Korea makes the floors warm. Ondol rooms hold many advantages in maintaining people's health, saving heating costs, and preserving the natural environment. So People are changing the heating system in different countries.

I think it is a grave mistake not to develop these important assets because Korea is too late to modernize. That’s why I speak up about modernization of Korean Music. Who can say that there is no such important source as "Ondol" in Korean traditional music? Some Koreans may be opposed to my opinion. But We need to see ourselves deeply and then ask yourself… Am I a person who is 100% out of Japan's Colonialism? Regardless of your answers, now Korea is still run by Japanese collaborators and it is a historical truth. I’m not gonna to this again. It’s too hard for my English level. I had to get some help from a Google translator.
