PA students get in touch with their culture by playing traditional Korean instruments

  • Three students at Lancaster's Stella Heart Institute play traditional Korean instruments to connect with their heritage in Pennsylvania.
  • They pursue this interest because preserving Korean culture helps maintain identity amid a small Korean population of about 41,000 in a state of over 12 million residents in 2010.
  • Lily, age 9, plays two gayageum string instruments and a large percussion drum called the daegu, which dates to the sixth century Silla period about 1,500 years ago.
  • Lily explained that she initially wanted to understand the instrument, and after discovering that it is not widely played around the world, she felt motivated to share and teach others about her culture.
  • The students hope their music inspires pride and curiosity about Korean culture within the Asian American and Native Hawaiian Pacific Islander community.
