 | | Teuroteu (or somewhat derisively ppongjjak) is the oldest form of Korean pop, having developed in the years before and during the Japanese occupation before World War II. |
| | Defenders of teuroteu refute this claim, citing parallel development as the reason for the similarities. |
| | The name itself, the Koreanised form of "trot", derives from a shortening of "foxtrot", a ballroom dance which influenced the characteristic simple beat of the genre. |
