모란봉악단 - 설눈아 내려라 Text & music: Ri Jongo (리종오) 1991 Recorded: Mokran Video DPRK Since its revival for the 2013 new year's concert this song as grown immense popularity in the DPRK and even abroad. The happy and prosperous atmosphere has made this recording live on in parallel with other later versions and is definitely a must for the new year's celebrations. In Korean culture, if you see a magpie in the morning it brings luck for the day. If you happen to see a rare white (albino) magpie you will gain lots of luck and prosperity. So, when the white magpie appears in the first morning of the new year it means a whole new year with great expectations and lots of good things to happen. Let us all share this wish for the new year to come! The snow (and good luck) will fall on the whole 3000 ri long nation from Mt. Halla on Jeju in the south to Mt. Paektu in the north.
