Yeak Jeodae Sori Association(Soyeon traditonal instrument academy) 예악젓대소리회(소연국악원) / Republic of Korea

Yeak Jeodae Sorihoe was founded in 2018 with the mission of promoting traditional Korean music, fostering future musicians through cultural exchange performances, and broadening the reach of gugak in the community. Originating as the Soyeon Gugakdan under the Soyeon Traditional Instrument Academy in February 2018, the group began its musical activities by performing for youth groups and senior welfare centers. In March 2023, small gugak enthusiast groups in Jeju were unified to officially establish Yeak Jeodae Sorihoe, with Jeon Young-cheon appointed as its first president. Currently, 28 members are active in the association, which functions as a key traditional music organization in Jeju and serves as a cultural hub for gugak lovers under the leadership of its parent institution, the Soyeon Traditional Instrument Academy.
