Shin Jae-hyo

Shin Jae-hyo (Korean: 신재효; Hanja: 申在孝; 1812–1884) was a theoretician and adapter of pansori in the late Joseon Dynasty. While not a famous singer of pansori, he contributed much to its development. He organized and recorded the six stories of pansori: Chunhyangga, Simcheongga, Jeokbyeokga, Heungbuga, Sugungga, and Byunggang Saega.[1] Before this, they had only been transmitted orally.[2] He also systematized a theory of pansori.

He was born in 1812 in Gochang, Jeolla-do. Having studied Chinese classics, he had a good knowledge about its philosophical works (제자백가, 諸子百家), including the Seven Chinese Classics: the Four Books and the Three Classics (사서삼경,四書三經). He opened his home to relatives, gisaeng, singers, and other entertainers, with as many as 50 people living in his house at once.[2]

He played the geomungo and gayageum in all styles of Korean music from classical music to popular music of the time. He valued diversity in pansori. He revised Chunhyangga for young pansori singers. He mentored female disciples such as Jin Chae-seon (the first female master singer of pansori), opening the way of pansori to women.[1][2][3]

Shin died in 1884 due to disease, grieving and longing for Jin, who had become a court singer for Heungseon Daewongun.[1][2]

gollark: As I said to sinþ:> If you actually are interested, the basic idea is just Notes Application #129719257 designed vaguely around wiki principles and as a shiny JS-based SPA.
gollark: I have a list of extra necessary stuff:```* Tags* Revision history* Media handling* Metadata/structured data support? At least for media* Usable mobile support* Search!* Efficient space use - compression?* Make inter-device synchronization possible* Consistent scrolling behavior* Probably some kind of macro-y or extension feature for important stuff like embedding maths/PDFs```which I expect to never finish.
gollark: So far I have:- page viewing capability (Markdown → virtual-DOM HTML)- page editing/creating capability (literally a `textarea`)but that's... basically it?
gollark: Anyway, if anyone wants to contribute code that would be appreciated. I'm not releasing the current code because I do not like it and it is unfinished, so just guess what code I might want and send me it.
gollark: The sanity thing, I mean.
