If Reverse I presented the grotesque “Westernization” of a Korean melody — Arirang — then Reverse II : Allemande Inverts that gesture. Here, a 16th-century European dance, the Allemande, is “Arirang-ised.” The colonial gaze is turned back upon itself.
Rather than simply reworking the structure of the first piece, this project dissects the Allemande into fragments — its rhythmic cells, cadential gestures, and contrapuntal phrases — and merges them with traces of Korean traditional musical practice: the vibrato of nonghyun, the microtonal inflections, the ornamental curvature of melody, and the unstable pitch centers that resist equal temperament. Through this hybridisation, Reverse II constructs a more mysterious, indirect, and fluid sonic space — one where the boundaries between “Europe” and “Korea” are suspended.
In Reverse I, the process of Western reinterpretation reached a grotesque level of exaggeration, exposing the mechanisms of cultural misrepresentation. Reverse II, by contrast, seeks an opposite yet equally critical perspective: it questions what happens when the musical language of the coloniser is absorbed, transformed, and reimagined from the margins. The act of “Arirang-ising” the Allemande becomes both a gesture of resistance and of reconciliation — a subtle rewriting of musical history from the periphery.
Ultimately, this work does not aim to recreate a past or to parody a style, but to open an acoustic in-between — a zone where sound itself begins to unlearn its inherited hierarchies.
