 KAYAGUM
• The gayageum or kayagum is a
traditional Korean zither-
like string instrument, with
12 strings, though some more
recent variants have 21 or other
number of strings. It is probably
the best known
traditional Korean musical
instrument
 GEOMUNGO
• The geomungo (also
spelled komungo or kŏmun'go)
or hyeongeum (literally "black zither",
also spelled hyongum or hyŏn'gŭm) is
a traditional Korean stringed musical
instrument of the zither family of
instruments with both bridges
and frets. Scholars believe that the
name refers to Goguryeo and
translates to "Goguryeo zither" or that
it refers to the colour and translates to
"black crane zither"
 HAEGUM
• The haegeum (Hangul:
해금) is a traditional
Korean string instrument,
resembling a fiddle. It is
popularly known
as kkangkkangi.[1] It has
a rodlike neck, a hollow
wooden soundbox, and
two silk strings, and is
held vertically on the
knee of the performer
and played with a bow.
 PIRI
• The piri is a Korean double reed instrument,
used in both the folk and classical
(court) music of Korea. It is made of bamboo.
Its large reed and cylindrical bore gives it a
sound mellower than that of many other types
of oboe.
CHANGGO
• The janggu (or janggo; also
spelled changgo) or sometimes
called seyogo (slim waist drum)
is the most representative drum
in traditional Korean music.. It is
