Yes indeed but what is so much fun for me sitting here at the other end-- retired 2 1/2 years ago-- is remembering the sound of it as sijo singers performed. What a revelation it was, way back then, for a grad student conducting research on the modern poet
Kim Sowôl.

0 + i) , as if the SK word were ha'i with two syllables, like Modern native Korean a'i and sa'i , even though, as other prolonged syllables in the sample page show, a CVC syllable can be broken into CV~~~~~C with the "patchim" written as a letter (jamo) and
not a syllable, so that breaking of a CVj syllable into CV~~~~~j would not have been without parallel.</span></span></div>

<div>Ancient 33 1/3 rpm records of Kim So-hûi singing sijo will give the pronunciation of those deconstructed vowel combinations, and the print versions of the song books show the desconstructed vowel sounds across the melodic lines on the pages.</div>

<div>I would be glad to post a photo of a song text.</div>
