Sangwhajum was already a famous traditional song between making a common people before it was shown in front of a king of Korea dynasty, chunglyul. For beautiful performance, the best singers and dancers were invited into palace, and main director "Ozam" made it refined story. Therefore Sangwhajum was born.
Sangwhajum couldn't be defined as a kind of traditional song of which theme is sexual story between man and woman. We must define it as a lamentable song of week women who could not exclaim their bad situation and could not but be plaything of men.
This work of art doesn't have full scale form and story like western opera. But actors have their charicters and sing one by one with being putting on makeup.
