[Reporter Ling Meixue/Taipei Report] The Paper Windmill Troupe will cooperate with the Hakka Committee to launch the Hakka parent-child drama "Rain Horse" in 2021. After each performance so far, the audience will always ask about the content of the lyrics, and it is hoped that it will be authorized to participate in the chorus competition songs etc.

Li Yongfeng, the founder of the Paper Windmill Troupe, decided to permanently authorize the Hakka Committee to use the songs for free. The related songs have been released on "Hakka Cloud" for download (https://reurl.cc/2WAvZ4), hoping to accompany the children with good sound grow up.

The Paper Windmill Troupe stated that "Rain Horse" has toured 34 times since its launch, including online broadcasts during the epidemic. It has accumulated nearly 640,000 viewers and is deeply loved by audiences at home and abroad. Feng, because the melody is easy to remember, the audience, regardless of whether they can speak Hakka or not, can hum a few words after watching the performance.

The 4 songs available for download this time include "The Great Monkey King", "Falling into the Water", "Mother's Song" and "Lovely Hakka", which makes it easy for children who are just learning Hakka to remember and learn. It can also be used by non-Hakka teachers who teach Hakka in teaching, or by students in Hakka town schools as a chorus competition, which is more conducive to the promotion of Hakka.

Li Yongfeng believes that the fastest way to learn a language is to learn from singing. He hopes that through the authorization of the song "Rain Horse", more people can learn Hakka from songs.

Yang Changzhen, chairman of the Hakka Committee, said that the promotion and preservation of ethnic languages ​​and multiculturalism in Taiwan is an important issue in today's society. He thanked Paper Pinwheel for authorizing the use of the song "Rain Horse" and jointly promoting the Hakka language.

However, the Hakka Committee also explained that although the song is free to download, it is only for "non-commercial" use, and "reproduction" and "public transmission" are prohibited. The Human Paper Windmill Troupe negotiated commercial licensing to respect intellectual property rights.
