Baby Shark:
Old camp fire children song, about a family of sharks. The Baby Shark song was further popularized by a video produced by Pinkfong, an education brand within South Korean media startup SmartStudy. The original video for Baby Shark (Korean: 상어 가족; RR: Sang-eo Gajok; lit. shark family) was uploaded on November 26, 2015. All videos related to Pinkfong's song have garnered over 10 billion views as of May 2022, making it the most-viewed educational video phenomenon of all time.
The song is simple on đàn tranh with one bended note at the end: E4 is bent to F#4.
