(Haenam, Jeonnam Province/ Bak, Sun-rye(72yrs)/ 1990)

◆ This song has the same function as the previous song. In South Jeolla Province, this song is often sung as a lullaby. The lyrics are almost same as the previous song, except that the part 'mother has gone to see the shaman ritual and father has gone to the market' has been added. The final verse which goes, 'And I only suck my mother's breast' is not a traditional format, but spontaneously added by the singer.
