Paper For Above instruction

The dichotomy between official and unofficial Korean traditional music practices highlights contrasting motives, functions, and artistic philosophies that shape their performances and societal roles. Official Korean musical practices, often institutionalized and subjected to state canonization, aim to preserve a standardized, idealized version of tradition that embodies national identity and cultural heritage. These practices serve political and ideological objectives, emphasizing the perpetuation of shared cultural values, fostering national pride, and constructing a unified cultural narrative. The aesthetic principles often prioritize stylized naturalness and “rough beauty,” which reflect a desire to maintain a sense of authenticity amid modernization efforts (Killick, 2009, p. 809).

In these official practices, improvisation retains a limited role, serving mainly as a controlled expressive element within predetermined frameworks. Personal stylistic variation is usually discouraged to uphold the stability, uniformity, and official image of the tradition. This standardization aims to create a “fixed” version of tradition that resists change, facilitating the preservation of cultural symbols deemed significant by the state. However, this rigidity paradoxically constrains the dynamic, evolving nature of folk expressions, introducing a tension between tradition as living practice and tradition as institutionalized canon.

In contrast, unofficial Korean musical practices are characterized by their flexibility, responsiveness to social conditions, and prolific improvisation. These practices aim to serve individual, community, and social functions—such as expressing personal feelings, responding to immediate life circumstances, or maintaining local identity. Improvisation and personal style are central, allowing for spontaneous variation and adaptation that reflect the diverse social realities of performers and audiences (Killick, 2009, p. 810). In these contexts, the purpose is not merely preservation but active engagement and innovation, emphasizing the fluid boundaries of tradition and encouraging personal artistic expression.

The outcome of the state-enforced fixed version of tradition often leads to cultural homogenization, loss of local diversity, and reduced spontaneity in musical expression. This can generate a paradox: while the official practice claims to preserve authentic tradition, it ultimately limits the live, improvisatory essence that characterizes folk music’s vitality. The paradox lies in the effort to fix tradition as a static cultural artifact, which in doing so, paradoxically diminishes its authenticity and adaptability—the core qualities that sustain folk traditions over time. Consequently, the rigid attitude toward the past produces a contradiction: it attempts to safeguard tradition, yet in doing so, often erodes its living, evolving character, revealing the complex interplay between cultural preservation and change.
