Samulnori is a type of Korean percussion music that has grown in popularity over the past few decades, both in Korea and abroad. The word "samulnori" ( ) can be divided into two parts - "samul" for "four things "and "nori" means "to play".

Samulnori ensembles usually consist of four main instruments: the Puk, the Janngu, the Jing, and the K'Kwaenggwari In a minimal ensemble, there is only one of each instrument, but sometimes you will see larger groups with four or more of each instrument. However, even in these larger groups, each instrument serves the same purpose. Each one represents an element of nature; Jing is wind, Janggu is rain, Puk is cloud, and K'kwaenggwari is lightning.

Samulnori originates from peasant music (nong-ak), which consists not only of music but also of dances celebrating the harvest season. The music is also derived from the shamanic tradition of utdari pungmul, which is played on these same instruments along with singing and wind instruments. In its modern incarnation, samulnori relies exclusively on the following four instruments, either in quartets or larger ensembles.
