News: Rock version of Korean national anthem causes a ruckus!
I was in the midst of remaking our Malaysian anthem in the key of Rock when I read 'THIS'. *Gulp
SK Telecom managed to ruffle some feathers in Korea recently when they screened a TV commercial containing the rock remake of the Korean national anthem ~ Aegukga (愛國歌/애국가).Credits go to Yoon Do-Hyun band (윤도현밴), which I must say has some excellent musicianship, and were probably only trying to expressing their love of the country through their style of music. Don't see anything wrong with that!
Not that this is an issue now, but damn ~ I also found out the song is copyrighted.
Yes, you heard me right:
Aegukga is COPYRIGHTED!
It's a first for me to hear that a national anthem has a copyright... especially coming from a country that copied EVERYTHING from Louis Vuitton bags to Rexona deodorants!Copyrights originally belonged to the composer Ahn Eak-Tae (deceased) and his family until 2015. But rights were relinquished/transferred over to the Korean government on 16th March 2005!I wonder if shit is going to hit the fan now if they pursue the matter. Anyway...- wikipedia.org
Got me a wicked idea!
If anyone wants to hear MY souped up version of the Malaysian national anthem Negaraku, or if you want to hear me remake Aegukga (gulp!) ~ Leave a comment, as well as forward this post to as many people as you can. I will take the plunge if we get the comments box filled up with at least 20 comments.If that happens, you'll be seeing some remodeled national anthems on this blog, and probably legal lawsuits, all within the next two weeks. *Wink
