✦ 1 Hour | XI. Land of the Morning Light - Part 5. Samulnori
The fifth composition of the 6-part Land of the Morning Light soundtrack, "Samulnori", was birthed by studying the rhythm of the beautiful traditional Korean Samulnori music and reiterating it with computer music.

"Samulnori", which can be directly translated to "the play of four objects", uses four percussion instruments where each represents a facet of nature: the "kkwaenggwari" as thunder, the "janggu" as rain, the "buk" as clouds, and the "jing" as wind.
As this genre is rhythmically based and devoid of melody, the resulting music is both exuberant and emotionally charged, is sometimes deeply profound, and conveys a raw sense of humanity throughout.
This Samulnori music will be used within a variety of "Land of the Morning Light" content, such as in cutscenes and combat.

✔︎ Pungmulnori: Pungmulnori, used in cutscenes and the Storybook, was edited and restructured using Samulnori instruments.
✔︎ Samulnori- Samdo Nongak Garak: Created for combat music by selecting and rearranging certain melodies of the "Samdo Nongak Garak", which combines the Pungmul Garak (traditional rhythmic pattern of Korean percussion) of three Korean provinces.
✔︎ Utdari Pungmul: Features the complete performance of "Utdari Pungmul", which integrates the traditional music of the Gyeonggi, Gangwon, and Chungcheong provinces.
