Sijo is a traditional Korean form of poetry that typically consists of three lines, each containing 14 to 16 syllables. The structure often follows a pattern where the first line introduces a theme, the second line develops it, and the third line provides a twist or conclusion. This poetic form is known for its lyrical quality and ability to convey deep emotions and philosophical ideas.
Sijo has been a significant part of Korean literature for centuries, often reflecting the beauty of nature, human experiences, and cultural values. It is commonly recited or sung, making it an integral part of Korean cultural heritage and education.
