Accordingly, the 50s and 60s share a list of K-pop music playing at the rally site and are also actively learning the music of the younger generation.
Examples include Black Pink Rose's "Apartment," Girls' Generation's "The Reunited World," Espa's "We Flash," SEVENTEEN unit Boo Seok-soon's "Fighting!" god's "One Candle" and G-Dragon's "Creepy."
What they have in common is that there are many sing-along parts that many people can sing together, or that there are lyrics that wish for a new era and encourage them.
In particular, Girls' Generation's "Reunited World" has drawn attention as it resonated at the site of an in-school protest at Ewha Womans University in 2016 and an anti-government protest in Thailand in 2020. Among the lyrics of "The New World," "I can't give up because I don't change the unknown future and the wall," and "Sadness that repeats in this world now, goodbye" are said to encourage those who crave new changes.
In the comment section of the K-pop music video on YouTube, a netizen identified himself as a "88th grader" and said, "I came to prepare for the weekend's impeachment rally. K-pop schoolboy," he wrote.
On the contrary, people in their 20s and 30s sometimes look for the culture of assembly in the past.
They share a list of folk songs videos posted on YouTube, and learn how to cheer or chants to learn the assembly culture that middle-aged people are familiar with.
On social networking services (SNS), image files with lyrics of songs sung at the rally, such as Choi Do-eun's "Bulnabi" and Kkotaji's "Like a Rock," are being shared.
Citizens who experienced the blurred boundaries between folk songs and popular songs at the rally said, "Isn't this true solidarity?"
