The Kinetic Korean Music Group YIEN is a traditional Korean music group of five young female artists: Dul-yi Kang (Haegeum, vocal), Kyung-min Nam (Gayageum), Saem-yee Lee (Piri, Taepyungso, vocal), Jeong-hui Cha (Daegeum, Sogeum), and Sol-ip Han (Janggu, percussion). Ever since its debut in 2007, YIEN has put its effort in producing creative Korean music with contemporary sensitivity alongside encounters with variant arts to communicate with contemporary youths.
Yien, a fusion "gugak" or traditional Korean music group, is often called the "Girls` Generation" of gukak.
It is comprised of seven young women in their mid-20s - five performers plus an in-house director and producer, most of whom were at the same class at Gukak National High School in Seoul, Korea.
The five artists each play "haegeum;" "gayageum;" "piri" and "taepyeongso;" "daegeum" and "sogeum;" and "janggu," "kkwaenggwari" and percussions, while the director and producer manage the band`s other affairs.
Yien started off in 2003 as a workshop of ambitious college freshmen who desired to try something new and branch out from traditional gukak.
"We wanted to do something to overcome gukak`s image of being lyrical and quiet all the time. But it does not mean we do not respect it. Having received formal education for more than 10 years, everything we do is based on gukak," said Nam Kyung-min, who plays the gayageum.
Yien is one of the few independent gukak bands that are not under any label or management. From programming to performing, the seven members of the band work together in expressing their own style.
