The janggu is the most representative drum in traditional Korean music. It consists of an hourglass-shaped body with two heads made from animal skin. The two heads produce sounds of different pitch and timbre, which when played together are believed to represent the harmonious joining of Um and Yang, or Yin and yang.


This janggu is the concert grade one in the 1.8 54cm in length and 45cm in drum skin diameter (21.2 x 17.8 inches) size. This size is the largest available, and it's made for concert performance. It's made by one of the best Korean drum maker Hanullim. This model is made with the best quality goat skin and paulownia wood.

This janggu comes with a set of premium grade drum sticks, and a leather carrying case.
