Although its origin is not clear in Anui-myeon, Hamyang-gun, Gyeongsangnam-do, it has been known as the main place where gongs have been made since the Silla Dynasty, and there were 10 places to make gongs until 1970.

Lee Yong-gu, 81, the father of the craftsman, was also taught to be a skilled craftsman at Oh Deok-su's (20-year-old, 亡), who has traditional techniques for making gongs after his father passed away at the age of nine and went into his mother's distant relative's house as a henchman, succeeding Kim Seong-no, Kim Dong-chun, and Kim Dal-yong, the original royal family.
