It contributed to musical improvement and development of local culture through their performance under the leadership of Jeong-in Hyeok, the current chief conductor with 70 members. His conducting is balanced between his strength, dynamics, and his extremely delicate interpretation. Furthermore, it has been praised for their effort to commission and premiere the new works and arrangements based on the folk tunes of Jeju Island.
