- Yeominlak (also called Seungpyeong-manse-jigok) is sung to the poem, Yongbi-eocheonga, written by King Sejong in the 15th century. It has derivations of Yeominlak-man (also called Gyeongrok-mogang-jigok), Bonryeong (also called Taepyeong-chun-jigok), and Haeryeong (also called Seoil-hwa-jigok). Two pieces, Boheoja (also called Jangchun-bullo-jigok) and Nagyangchun (also called Gisu-yeongchang-jigok) are imported from China into the Koryo dynasty during the 10th century. Jeongeup (also called Sujecheon) is believed to be made during the Baekje dynasty (? ~ 660). Dongdong is derived from Jeongeup. Some musical pieces are arranged to the orchestra from marching band music.
- They include Chwita (also called Manpa-jeongsik-jigok), Gil-gunak (also called Jeolhwa), Gil-taryeong (also called Urimryoeng or Ilseung-wolhang-jigok), and Byeol-ujo-taryeong (also called Geumjeonrak). Other pieces are arranged to the orchestra from the lyrical songs. They include Gyeongpungnyeon, Suryongeum, and Yeomyangchun.
