Yoo Dong-cho is the person who recorded two pieces of music, the sanjo and bongjangchwi, in 1937 by playing his tungso and recording the music thus produced into phonograph discs. He has remained a subject of research not only for musical performers but also for scholars, owing to his remarkable talent for rendering musical performances.
This research was conducted for four years, with five field studies on the character of Yoo Dong-cho, the top tungso musical performer in the 1930s. Based on the information provided by the informants, this research was divided into two parts: (1) Yoo Dong-cho’s art activities; and (2) the dates of his birth and death. The description of his art activities in this paper was based on the information provided by the informants, and the discussion of the exact dates of his birth
and death was based on the records in the pulled-out family register.
As for his art activities, Yoo Dong-cho enjoyed not only the folk music of sanjo and bongjamgchwi, which he recorded in phonograph discs, but also elegant music, such as that coming from the gayageum. As for the musical instruments that he played, he played diverse instruments, such as the tungso, gayageum, danso, sepiri, jingo, and drums.
Although Yoo Dong-cho did not have many disciples, the few disciples that he had followed him endlessly, and he
sometimes taught for a living. According to newspaper records and to the information provided by the informants, Yoo Dongcho taught elegant music rather than the sanjo. The tungso, however, was the musical instrument that he played best, and he always carried one with him. In the 1930s, Yoo Dong-cho was active in recording tungso music into phonograph discs, and in musical-performance broadcasting. This can be seen from the records of his radio broadcasting guestings in the mid-1930s, and from the records of the Victor edition of his tungso solo.
Yoo Dong-cho was born on March 7, as the elder of two sons, Yoo su-yeong and Han Deok-san, in Jeonnam, Jangseong-gun, Buksangmyeon. His real name was Yoo Bong (柳鳳), and he belonged to the Munhwa (文化) Yoo (柳) family.
Although Yoo Dong-cho was born in Jeonnam Janseong, he moved to Gochang Heungdeok-ri, Iksan Hwangdeung-ri, and Gimje Baeksan-myeon, and he settled down in Jeonbuk. For about 20 years in the last phase of his life, when he was most active in terms of rendering musical performances, he lived in Gimje Baeksan. It appears, however, that his activities were not limited to the Jeonbuk region but spanned the whole country. He died in 1946 at the age of 61 in Seungbang Village in Gimje Baeksan-myeon, and his grave is
currently in Jeonnam Jangseong.
