Yeah the gayageum and the koto were based off of the ancient chinese instrument the guzheng. Of course they sound different and are tuned differently so they're different instruments. For the chinese out there, who gives a crap lol... you know that these asian zither type instruments came from china. Why argue with anyone? What's the big deal? Anyone can search wikipedia and know where these instruments come from. Just chill out.
I remember they would play Let It Be on 가야금 on train in Korea, when the train was getting into Seoul at night. So peaceful... even tho I'm not Korean, when returning to Seoul at night and hearing that song, it made me feel like it was home. Thank you!
skt, I played these - the string breaks all the time.
Korea is not independent until after the Sino-Japanese war. Korea does not have independent history. The Korean identity is created in the last century. The problem is that it is too narrow to sustain or to be proud of.
this is indeed China's musical instrument, not Korea's. I exactly don't understand how come Korea always like to steal China's stuff, then said that it's their's, weird.
YES it originated from China BUT it doesn't mean it is China's musical instrument. As time goes it fitted into Korea's culture and it became very different instrument from China's.
anyway, i think your viewpoint is weird. it originated from China, of course it means that it's China's musical instrument. For example, i don't know whether one day you will said that SITAR fitted into Korea's culture, so it's Korea's musical instrument. Besides that, I even ever read the news that Korean said that CONFUCIUS is a Korean, damn, why don't you said that Osama bin Laden is a Korea too because Osama bin Laden is as suck as a korean??
If you think that way, Japanese Koto, Mongolian yatga, Vietnamese đàn tranh would be all China's? Also, Japanese character, Hirakana, would be China's too, since it was from Chinese Characters huh? YES the original form is from China BUT that doesn't mean all of these are China's! Yes China had a great culture and I do respect it but it doesn't mean you can say everything is yours. The parent instrumnet, Zheng (箏), have 16 strings while gayaguem have 12 strings. They are DIFFERENT.
Another thing is that I am very surprised that you said Koreans say Confucius is Korean. Well, I have read newspapers saying Chinese news papers are accusing Koreans falsely saying Koreans believe Confucius is Korean, paper was invented in Korea or Sun Wen(孫文) is Korean. I didn't believe a such thing, but seeing you saying it, I don't know what to say. Of course all of those are not true and if you don't believe it simply ask some of Koreans and you will know.
pakmano7 , I know this is Korean, but please make sure you use the true history. Guzheng is not from this Korean instrument
According to the Samguksagi (1145), a history of the Three Kingdoms of Korea, the gayageum is supposed to have been developed around the 6th century in the Gaya confederacy by King Gasil (also known as Haji of Daegaya) after he observed an old Chinese instrument. He then ordered a musician named Ureuk to compose music that could be played on the instrument.
No, it's the Gayageum, which predates the Guzheng. This style of instrument originated in Korea and was diffused to China when the Tang established relations with Silla. Silla gave this instrument as a gift to the Tang Imperial Court.

The guzheng is the parent instrument of the Japanese koto, the Mongolian yatga, the Korean gayageum, and the Vietnamese đàn tranh. The parent instrument of the guzheng is the se.
Dude this is Korean, but please use the real historical background.

The koreans have always been the center of attack lol. Russia from the north, china from the west, japan from the east... constant attacks its ridiculous.They till try to step all over us online with stupid ass propaganda. SO yes, when I listen to this instrument I feel this blood rushing, we koreans call it "han" , han is a word filled with sadness, trials, tribulations , all the bad things we've incountered, unfairness, just all these feelings into that one word. so yes we love this sound.
It is not only the Koreans who have suffered. Yes, we were targets on numerous occasions but I'm sure there are those who suffered worse. But that doesn't mean in anyway that Korea is the only victim.
But your online propaganda thing is right. It is an major issue but that is just jealousy. Something we shouldn't be worrying about as much as you seem to be.
