Song of maengkong 2024 Directed by Nam Hae-deun 맹꽁가
In the midst of political battles, people sang together, hoping for solidarity and a brighter future. The lyrics and syllables people used to chant always seemed to align with the song's ideals, but in reality, it's heading to a blurry past. The Maeng-Kong's cry, however, is not tied to a specific era that people yearned for. Their song simply echoes as their mating call rather than a political statement. The sound "Maeng-Kong-(Croak- Croak-)" howls; could we imagine a space of struggle and solidarity once more?
