Under the Japanese colonial rule, Taiwan and Japan shared many cultural legacies, such as five -seven syllables ballads and pentatonic scale. During the 'Kōmin-ka monvment'(transforming Taiwanese people into Japanese imperial subjects),Jap-anese rulers even rewrote lyrics of Taiwanese popular songs in Japanese. Despite such similarities and policy of assimilation, Taiwanese popular music had shown an unambiguous propensity in its development to distinguish itself from Japanese Enka. |
