Yonggo

Kyung Suk Park Korean

Not on view

Reflecting the instrument’s name, which translates as “dragon drum,” the yonggo has a lively dragon design. Though similar to the nearby gyobanggo, it is smaller, making it easy to play while slung across the musician’s waist. Ergonomically efficient, it has a portability ideal for processional music.
