CD10-10: Yecheon, Song for Swinging
(Yecheon, Gyeongbuk Province/ Yang, Ok-gyo(76yrs)/ 1993)
◆ Sung by women while swinging on the swing during Dano Festival (단오날, the fifth day of the fifth lunar month). The custom of Dano Festival where women put on their best clothes and swing is described in the lyrics. The singer said that she learnt this song from her hometown, Jiksan-ri of Yecheon-eup but the custom of this village was not much different from her hometown. This song is a good resource for studying the past customs for Dano Festival.
