    Pansori refers to a singer who intertwines a long story by mixing a spear (sound), a horse (anirli), and a gesture (a shape) in tune with the rhythm of a drummer (a (a drummer).

    Pansori was famous for its eight famous pansori singers from around 1834 (r. 1800 to 1834). The rhythms and tunes of the pansori were developed as they are today. The pansori was divided according to regions such as Dongpyeonje (Northeast of Jeolla Province), Seopyeonje (South Jeolla Province), and Jungdongje (Gyeonggi Province and Chungcheong Province).

    Among them, the sound of Dongpyeonje passed down from Song Heung-rok to Song Gwang-rok, Park Man-soon, Song Woo-ryong, Song Man-gap, and Yoo Seong-jun was loud. The sound of Dongpyeonje is composed of a thick, grand ornamentation that uses a lot of the tune of Useong, one of the five tones, and makes the voice heavy and the tail of the sound short.

    At the time of Pansori, the length of one yard was not that long, so the number of pansori twelve madangs was high, but now only Chunhyangga, Simcheongga, Sugungga, Heungbo, and Jeokbyeokga are handed down because of the five pansori or five batangs of Pansori.

    Heungboga is one of the five pansori yards and is also called Baktaryeong. Heungbo, a poor and good brother, fixed the broken swallow leg and planted the gourd seed that the swallow had brought to him to become rich. Nolbo, a generous and greedy brother, broke the swallow leg and planted the gourd seed that the swallow had brought, and made a pansori of the story that the pansori tells the story.

    Park Jeong-rye, whose Dongpyeonje Heungbo was designated as a holder of entertainment, came from a traditional pansori family that had been associated with pansori since her grandfather's generation, and spent her entire life with pansori. Currently, Suncheon Gugak Center is training its students for the victory of Heungboga, the Dongpyeonje.

    Records tell us that on the Korean Peninsula, embroidery started during the Three Kingdoms Period (circa 57 BC – 668 AD). During the Goryeo Period (877 – 1394), the practice became so widespread that it was adopted even on the clothes of ordinary people. As a result, embroidery was prohibited several times. With the start of the Joseon Period (1392 – 1910), the practice developed further and was divided into royal embroidery, exquisitely made by skilled court ladies, and the others. Looking at how a piece of embroidery is made, first the cloth to work on is fixed onto a frame and a rough sketch is made on it. Upon the completion of embroidery, the frame is shaken to remove dust. Then, a thin layer of paste is applied to the back of the embroidered surface so as not to let the stitches scatter. The embroidered piece is then placed in the shade to dry and removed from the frame. Embroidery has developed as a reflection of Koreans’ living environment, customs, and beliefs.

    Manggae are made by tying four to five handles or strings of wide stones or shits, and Busan uses wide stones, unlike other places. When the workers pull the rope up and let it go, the manga hits the ground and becomes more and more solid. As such, ironing the ground with a manga to strengthen the site is called a manga, and the sound called to relieve the fatigue of labor and to keep in step with the efficiency of work is called a manga.

    Dancheong refers to the coloring of dried vegetables and crafts, which are mineral pigments. Dancheong is advantageous for the preservation of timber, and it can cover the crude parts of wood, and it helps to make the building magnificent. Dancheong is a branch of Buddhist art that has been a long history of Korean history as an expression of Buddhist doctrines and ideologies.

    In the past, people working in Dancheong were called Hwasa, Hwawon, Hwagong, and Dochaejang. If he was a monk, he was called a goldfish or a hwaseung.

    Dancheongjang Lee Jeong-oh was taught traditional dancheong skills from the late monk Ilseop (former holder of intangible cultural assets) who was the head of the largest faction in Korea's Dancheong community. In 1974, he was the youngest (26 years old) to pass the screening test for a designated repair engineer (Dancheong Technician). After that, he worked hard to develop the golden patterns and surrounding patterns, which were the specialties of his teacher, Ilseob, along with the inheritance of traditional patterns and techniques.

    In addition, the Chinese architectural chair's guidebook, "The Painting of the Painting of Yi Mingzhong's Royal Ancestral Code," was used to develop newspaper patterns.

    Lee Jeong-oh's works include the Hapcheon Haeinsa Daeungjeon, Onyang Hyeonchungsa Hyeonchunggak, Yeongnamnu Pavilion, Jikji Daeungjeon Hall, and Deoksuam Daeungjeon Hall in Daejeon.

    Following the genealogy received from his teachers, including the late Sin Eon-su (the holder of the Dancheongjang of Jeonbuk Intangible cultural heritage) and the late Park Joon-ju, a former cultural property repair engineer, Kim Seong-gyu possessed the necessary skills as a dancheong technician, including the reproduction of dancheong style of traditional techniques. It also has a record of constructing dancheong at 350 major cultural properties, including national treasures and treasures, and has a well-equipped system, with many of its technicians continuing their careers. As above, he was recognized as the holder because he had sufficient qualifications and conditions.

    He passed the plating and dancheong section of the cultural heritage Administration's cultural heritage Repair Technique in 1995 and 1996, respectively, and currently serves as a visiting professor at the Korean Traditional Culture University's Institute of Traditional Culture and Education. The collection of Dancheong works includes "The Seowon of 崋藏莊儼 at the end of a brush" (Hunminsa, 2004).

    Dancheong refers to the technique of coloring a building or the result of its use, and Dancheongjang refers to a craftsman who does dancheong work. The area of dancheong has traditionally tended to encompass discord, and the recent learning process supports this perception. The history of Dancheong dates back to the Three Kingdoms Period. Damjing of Goguryeo, Baekje's Baekga and Silla's Solgeo are all considered to have been responsible for the responsibility of dancheong as painters who painted murals in temples.

    Dancheong, which is painted on Buddhist temples and palaces with special authority, was used to extend the life span of the building and to serve as both a grandeur. Even among the buildings, the design choices and the degree of decoration were different, and the prestige was different. The royal palaces and the temple's Daeungjeon Hall were treated with a variety of Geumdancheong, Morodancheong, and Geukgi Dancheong. It embodies a bright pattern based mainly on five mineralized stone pigments.

    Dancheongjang includes Yi Chih-ho, Kim Seong-su, Im Seok-jeong, and Hong Chang-won, who were designated as national intangible cultural assets, and many craftsmen are also working in the provinces through their respective transmission systems. Gyeonggi-do Province is the owner of Dancheongjang, and Kim Jong-wook (born 1937) was designated as the head of Dancheongjang in 1999.

    Hwagak craft refers to crafts or techniques used to decorate the back by grinding iron horns thinly and drawing patterns. The artisan who works in hwagak is called hwagakjang. Hwagak crafts are unique characteristics of Korean crafts, which are not found in other countries, and show the characteristics of Korean woodcraft along with lacquerware. The origin is unknown, but the shell of a tortoise with similar characteristics was used during the Goryeo Dynasty's Najeonchigi, and the traces of the tortoise were evident after the late Joseon Dynasty.

    Hwagak uses a ventriloquism technique that boils the horns of a bull aged 3 to 5 and spreads them in half to make a flat surface, then stirs them thin enough to show the back, drawing a pattern on the back. Not only does the complexion preserve the color well, but the color is also deeper, enhancing the quality of the craftwork. Each piece of the pattern is attached with a glue on the skeleton, and the cow bones are cut between the pieces to fix the boundary. However, it is not easy to preserve them because of the elasticity of the cones, which were originally cones, over time. Therefore, the process of preparing materials was complicated and cumbersome, and expensive, so it was used by the royal court and the minority ruling class.

    The late Eumilcheon and Lee Jae-man were designated as national intangible cultural assets, while the late Han Chun-seop (1949-2015) of Gyeonggi-do was the only holder of the local incinerator. Han Chun-seop learned the art of painting by entering the Najeonchigi, and then learned the art of painting again under Eumilcheon. Currently, his son, Han Ki-duk, has been designated as an assistant instructor and is working hard to pass down his skills.

    Drumming refers to the art of making traditional drums. The mastermind of the drumming was called "Kang Ssuhuan" in Chinese characters. The drum, which makes sounds by ringing animal skins, is considered one of the most primitive instruments. This is because the sound of leather moves the basic sensibility of human beings more than other materials. Therefore, the North has a very long history, regardless of which country it is, and South Korea is no exception.

    The drum is divided into Jeongakyong, Buddhist temple, and civilian use according to its purpose, and there are many types of drum. In addition to Beopgo, Maegu Book for Nongak, and Sori Book for Pansori, there are 14 types of Jeongak, including Jugo, Yonggo, Yeonggo, and Gyobango, and others, which are commonly known as Beopgo, Maegu Book for Nongak, and Pansori, and Sogo and Janggo for private use. The janggu was originally produced separately, but is now included in the scope of the work of the drumming machine.

    Drums with different names differ in form or method of making them for different purposes. The drum usually uses cowhide, but the janggu needs to use doghook to make its own sound. One of the key points of drumming is the making of the woolen canister and leather tanning technology. The tanning that deals with raw leather is now only partially transmitted. There are ways to cut down the inside of a log and to connect the sides of a tree to make a round ring. Among these, the technology to connect the sides of a tree is very demanding and difficult.

    Bukmaeugi was recognized as a national intangible cultural asset by the late Park Kyun-seok and the late Yun Deok-jin. Currently, Gyeonggi-do Province is tying up and designating drum-maeugi for the musical instrument field. In 1999, Im Sun-bin (born in 1950) was recognized for his function, and his son is recognized as a son.

    Im Dong-guk and other students are actively being taught to him.

    The stringed instrument field among musical instruments refers to craftsmen who produce gayageum and geomungo. During the Joseon Dynasty, it was also called a pungryu or pungmungmuljang. The history of stringed instruments dates back to before the Three Kingdoms Period. The geomungo of six prefectures was invented by Wang Sanak of Goguryeo, and twelve lines of gayageum originated from Gaya. Geomungo was also referred to as Hyeonhakgeum, or cash, which means the most fundamental musical instrument, because black cranes gathered together at a solemn sound. Geomungo is a symbol of harmony among the Yaeak, the core of the political philosophy of oil prices, beyond entertainment, and was also a must-have item in the study of noblemen and scholars.

    In addition to geomungo and gayageum, string instruments include Ajaeng, Haegeum, Daejaeng, Hyangbipa, Wolgeum, Wa Gonghu, Su Gonghu, and Yanggeum, among which Gayageum is largely divided into Jeongakyong and Sanjo. The main ingredient of the string instrument is an odong tree, which is used as an eulimtong, and chestnut wood, which is stronger than this, is used to support the sound. The craftsman who deals with stringed instruments thinks that the difference in sound quality is mainly related to the quality of the paulownia, so he puts his efforts into obtaining quality materials. Since ancient times, it has been widely recognized that the slow-growing Odong in the midst of barren rocks has a soft sound, and Seoksang-dong, recorded in "The Evil Scrolls," is related to this.

    String instruments are among the areas that have been activated compared to other craft fields thanks to the success of Gugak. The late Kim Kwang-ju, Lee Young-soo, and Go Heung-gon have been recognized as national intangible cultural assets. In Gyeonggi-do, strings are tied and designated in the field of musical instrument No. 30-2. In 1999, Choi Tae-soon (born in 1941) was recognized for his function and actively taught to his son Choi Jung-wook and other students.
