12.3 After the emergency martial law incident, the appearance of changes from the previous ones was noticeable at the civic assembly site.

At the moment the National Assembly impeachment bill was passed, Girls' Generation's "reunited world" rang out instead of folk songs.

{ 세계}The Reunited World' is the debut song of Girls' Generation released in 2007, and 17 years later, it has been resonating throughout the rally site and has been listed on the reverse chart.

According to the music platform Melon, the number of listeners of "The World We Met Again" from the 3rd to the 9th increased by 23% from a week ago.

It is said that it is unusual for the number of listeners to popular idol group songs in the past to increase by more than 20% other than season songs such as carols.

The song depicts girls moving into the unknown while overcoming anxiety, which is being used at the rally site because it fits well with the current situation.

In a past interview, lyricist Kim Jung-bae, who wrote the lyrics of "The World I Met Again," said, "It is a song made to give a message not to avoid any fear in the future and to get through it."

In the university district, this song has been written at school rallies since the 2010s.

In particular, when students from Ewha Women's University confronted the police during a sit-in at the main building in 2016, the students' singing of "The Reunited World" to overcome fear spread on social media and began to be called in earnest.

In addition, K-pop hits such as Espa's "Whiplash," DAY6's "To Be a Page," and Rosé's "Apartment" are also resonating, and some analysts say that K-pop has become the "New Minjung Song of 2024."
