GUNA HAE 구나 헤

by Baeshi Bang & Ip Koa Son

/

about

Muju Records is proud to present the single "Guna hae", the second step of the collaboration between the Parisian quintet Baeshi Bang and the Seoul collective Ip Koa Son. The two groups were to meet in France in April 2020 to develop a repertoire made up of unpublished adaptations of traditional Korean songs. A collaboration postponed and canceled three times in a row for the reasons we know. Paradoxically, these obstacles fueled the will of the two groups to work together. For lack of being able to physically find each other, the musicians have used and abused zoom meetings and frantic exchanges of sound files, to produce a second single and advance on the preparation of an LP album.
"Guna Hae" is an ancestral song from the small fishing island of Jindo, lost in the extreme southwest of Korea. It unwinds the thread of a love story, which, as in any good song, ends badly. While the first single "Janggi Taryeong" featured the voice of singer Shin Seung Tae, "Guna Hae" is performed by the two singers of the collective, Lee Seung-hee and Kim So-jin. The deceptively minimalist arrangement of this song balances vocals and a slide guitar that responds to vocals and shifts the scene somewhere to the Mississippi Delta. Traditional percussions, minimal mbira, flute and mellophone complete the timeless and twilight mood of this title.

lyrics

어허야 어허야 이 네로구나 헤 어어여루 산이로구나 헤 / 나는 그대를 생각허기를 하루도 열백번이나 생각허는디 그대는 날 생각헌 줄 알 수 없구나 헤 / 상사가 났구나 병이 났네 임 그리워 병이 났네 / 임 못 보아 상사 났으니 임 아니고서 뉘랴서 고쳐주리 / 아이고 답답헌 이 내 심정 어느 누가 알거나 헤 / 어허야 어허야 이 네로구나 헤 /어어여루 산이로구나 헤 /잠이 들면 꿈 꾸이고 꿈을 꾸면 임이 와서 나의 손을 부여안고 / 내 사랑아 잘 있더냐 (둥둥 내 사랑 어허 둥둥 내 사랑 둥둥둥 내 사랑) 그 말이 귀에 가 쟁쟁허여 나는 못 살겄구나 헤 / 어허야 어허야 이 네로구나 헤 어어여루 산이로구나 헤 / 어어여루 산이로구나 헤 (구나 헤- 구나 헤-)
