What is this song saying? It is so pretty and when I listen to it I feel like I am in a far off place living in the mountains, living natural. I feel sad but so good at the same time. It makes me have memories that I never experienced in my life. It is so strage. I want to know what she is saying. I am studying Korean just to understand this music. <3
@DanielleBrittany00 its actually a very sad song, far from pretty...the singer is basically crying in pain about the princess and land "leaving" (being taken away). My korean isnt the best but its haunting to listen to her singing like this and think about what my grandparents went through in korea because of japan...these photos give me chills as they resemble some i have seen at my grandmas house
PEOPLE!!!! GOOD NEWS!!! the last princess is NOT dead! well, the princess mentioned in this honorable video is deceased, BUT in new york, myung seoung empress' 5th or so daughter is still alive. i believe she is 82(?) years old. thought you might be interested. and i'm not talking nonsense, i can even provide the direct link to the article.
name fo last princess is 덕혜옹주, search about her for more information, she is not daugter of Empress Myeongseong, but she is daughter of 귀인 양씨, noblewoman Yang, 7th wife of 고종, Emperor Kojong
The sadness in this music, brings forth the abuse of corruption of the rich and the governmental inadequacies of bring all people towards equality, of those who they took an oath to serve the common people.
Thank you for wonderful presentation. Only qualms I'm lost about is having youtube name seem to be present from different area. No big deal, it is greatly appreciated.
It's Princess Deokhye right?? I only just looked it up on wikipedia. Wow this is embarrassing because I'm korean and I'm meant to know the history of Korea but I don't know a thing or two because I was taught American, Germany, China, England, Vietnam history...
What "pi-ga", "or Bi-Ga means? it is only a title without any other meaning ? can you help me with this question?
Thank you a lot for uploading such a beautiful song and with such wonderful images ! I love it, i love it , i feel this world somewhere in myself, in my soul! thanks
the song name is 'bi ga'.biga means a sad song.japanese invaded korea and genocided peoples, stole cultural properties, killed queen and made her crazy (5:09-- she is last royal princess of korea but she is in japanese clothes)so peoples sang this song. this song express to grief.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
not so sure about "brutally" colonized. Sure there were confort women, but people seem to forget that there were thousands of japanese comfort women as well.
I cannot give you the excact translation but... Arirang [ 아리랑 ] holds the meaning of suddent leaving / departings something to that derictions... alot of arirang songs are nation or love related..
Actually, the last girl in the photo is not Japanease. I think it is a portrait of the youngest princess of the Korean Imperial family. After that Japan colonized Korea, she was forced to study in Japan and to marry a Japanease nobleman. Although it was not an unhappy marriage, the princess suffered from some psychological troubles after her parents' death.
so sad :-<

and the last photo, of a japanese girl, gives your video more tragedy. you know korea was brutally colonized by japan.
by the way, i am not anti japan, but history is history and nobody can change that.
