Samulnori basically means "four instruments" and refers to the four instruments (kwaengwari, jing,janggu, and buk) played by the musicians. With roots in Buddhist and farmers music, the style has changed through the years and evolved in different ways. One of the major influences of the style has been Kim Duk Soo SamulNori ensemble.
