Summary/Abstract |
In analyzing North Korean song propaganda captured during the Korean War and Kim Il Sung's writings about music, this paper argues for consideration of music's significance as a component in the North Korean revolution. Music's respective connections to North Korean religion, education, and military discipline are examined. The paper contributes thereby to debates on the cultural Cold War in Korea, North Korean state formation, and the role of international influence on the Korean Peninsula.
