"Arirang" (Korean: "아리랑") is a Korean folk song, often considered the unofficial national anthem of Korea.
In December 2012, the song was inscribed on the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity programme by UNESCO. This was followed by an announcement by the Cultural Heritage Administration of Korea
of a five-year plan to promote and preserve the song. The plan is aim
to support "Arirang" festivals by regional organizations, as well as
building an archive for the song, exhibitions, fund research; of which
it has allocated ₩33.6 billion.
