Cooperation to Promote Creative Diversity and Protect Creators' Rights
The Korea Music Copyright Association (Chairman Chuga Yeol) announced on the 23rd that it has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Korea Music MIDI Association (Chairman Wi Jong-su) to foster next-generation musicians and promote diversity in music creation.
The signing ceremony, held on the 20th at the headquarters of the Korea Music Copyright Association in Gangseo-gu, Seoul, was attended by Chairman Chuga, Chairman Wi, Vice Chairman Park Hak-gi of the Korea Music Copyright Association, and Secretary-General Lee Seung-han of the Korea Music MIDI Association.
The Korea Music MIDI Association is an organization established to protect the rights of MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) computer musicians and to advance MIDI music. It focuses on improving working conditions to ensure that computer musicians can enjoy their rightful rights and have a stable foundation for their activities.
Through this agreement, both organizations aim to develop workshop programs that enhance creative capabilities, targeting the discovery and nurturing of next-generation music creators such as university students and youth. They also plan to jointly operate music creation song camps and festivals to expand the diversity of music creation.
Chuga Yeol, Chairman of the Korea Music Copyright Association, said, "Discovering and nurturing music creators is an important task for the sustainable future of popular music. Through this agreement, we will promote diversity in creation and create an environment where future generations can freely create."
Wi Jong-su, Chairman of the Korea Music MIDI Association, stated, "MIDI is essential in current music creation, but the rights of creators are not sufficiently protected. Through cooperation with the Korea Music Copyright Association, we will actively support future generations of music creators and continue practical efforts to protect creators' rights."
The Korea Music MIDI Association includes many hit writers who created songs such as "Joheunnal," "Baram-ui Norae," "Sarang-eun Neul Domangga," and "Jjin-iya" as members.
