Santoki (산토끼) is a Korean nursery rhyme sung by Korean children. If you watch the video, you’ll see that the adults have a special dance to the song. That dance is taught to Korean preschoolers all over Korea, and it’s supposed to be performed while singing the song. So let’s burn some calories, and sing along, while learning some Korean while you’re at it.
