Traditional Dance and Music |
 | | Pungnyu is an archaic term that originally referred to music in general but later came to denote a state of mental and physical leisure in which man removes himself from everyday life through the appreciation of poetry music and female companionship. |
 | | The song is accompanied by an instrumental ensemble consisting of a komun-go, a six-string zither, kaya-gum, a 12-string zither, yanggum, a Korean-style dulcimer, haegum, a two-string fiddle without a fingerboard, p'iri, a cylindrical oboe, and changgo, an hourglass drum. |
