Student 2 : That's an effect of metal music, I guess, sir. I feel energized and powerful... hahaha!

Student 1 : And suicidal too. Many metal songs are about hatred, killing, and suicide missions. It should be banned every where.

Student 2 : No... that's not true. There're many metal songs about social critics too. Isn't that right, sir?

Teacher   : Yes. But, to be honest, there're also many songs with dark and scary topics in metal music.

Student 1 : Aha! I know it. Let's consider metal music as a "mental disease" so that it needs to be banned.

Teacher   : Okay... stop right there. How about our traditional music? Who do you think still like it?

Student 2 : Our grandpa and grandma... hahaha! Sorry, it's a bad joke. Well, some young people still like it, I guess.

Teacher   : How come our traditional music cannot compete the popularity of rock, metal, or K-pop music?

Student 1 : Good question. Well... maybe our traditional music is very sacred so that no musician dare enough to develop it.

Student 2 : That's right, sir. I feel the same way too. There're too many "don't" from elderly when we try to develop it. 

Teacher   : Really? Are you sure it's not because young people are just afraid of being labeled "old" or "out of date"?
