'''Pansori: Korea’s Traditional Epic Vocal Art'''

Pansori is a traditional Korean performing art that combines singing (<i>sori</i>), spoken narration (<i>aniri</i>), and expressive gestures (<i>neoreumsae</i>) into a long, dramatic musical narrative performed by a solo singer accompanied by a drummer (<i>gosu</i>). The <i>gosu</i> beats a drum to maintain rhythm and interjects encouraging exclamations called <i>chuimsae</i>, which heighten the energy and connection between performer and audience.

Originating in the southwestern regions of Korea in the 17th century among the common people, <i>pansori</i> developed into its mature form in the 19th century through the artistry of renowned singers. Over time, distinctive regional styles emerged: <i>dongpyeonje</i> (eastern style) from northeastern Jeolla-do, <i>seopyeonje</i> (western style) from southwestern Jeolla-do, and <i>junggoje</i> (central style) from the Gyeonggi-do and Chungcheong-do areas.

In its early days, twelve stories were performed, but as the narratives lengthened and became more elaborate, five representative epics came to be preserved. These five surviving stories embody the Confucian virtues of loyalty, filial piety, integrity, and chastity cherished during the Joseon period: <i>Song of Chunhyang</i> (Chunhyangga), <i>Song of Sim Cheong</i> (Simcheongga), <i>Song of Heungbo</i> (Heungboga), <i>Song of Underwater Palace</i> (Sugungga), and <i>Song of Red Cliffs</i> (Jeokbyeokga).

<i>Song of Chunhyang</i> tells of the love and fidelity of Chunhyang and Mongryong; <i>Song of Sim Cheong</i> portrays Sim Cheong’s devotion to her blind father and her miraculous rebirth; <i>Song of Heungbo</i> humorously depicts the moral lesson of good rewarded and evil punished through the story of two brothers, Heungbo and Nolbo; <i>Song of Underwater Palace</i> features a witty rabbit and a loyal turtle in an allegory of cleverness and loyalty; and <i>Song of Red Cliffs</i> recounts the heroic battle of Red Cliff from <i>The Romance of the Three Kingdoms</i>, celebrating valor and righteousness.

Pansori was designated National Intangible Cultural Heritage in 1964 and inscribed on UNESCO’s Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2003. UNESCO recognized pansori as “an epic vocal art that embodies the Korean people’s identity, linguistic creativity, and communal spirit.” Today, it continues to thrive through stage performances, creative adaptations, and educational programs, standing as a living bridge between oral tradition and performing art — one of Korea’s most representative intangible heritages.
