Gong Myoung, Korean percussion quartet, is the only Korean band performing at SXSW this year. The musicians, who are classically trained in Korean traditional music, are Park Seung-won, Cho Min-su, Kang Seong-il, and Song Gyeong-geun. They are so old-school they make their own instruments. They reinvent traditional Korean sounds by mixing it up with modern sounds. Consider them a true respite from mainstream KPOP. Check out why this fusion band has such an international following.
