ADG7 (Ak Dan Gwang Chil) is a multi-award-winning Korean ensemble that fuses shamanic ritual music and folk traditions with pop, funk, and unstoppable stage energy. Blending traditional Korean instruments such as daegeum, saenghwang, ajaeng, gayageum, and percussion with powerhouse vocals, the group reimagines gut (ritual music) and minyo (folk songs) from Korea’s Hwanghae-do region into joyful, high-impact performances filled with humor, spirit, and collective release.
Founded in 2015 to mark Korea’s liberation, ADG7 channels themes of freedom and reunification through vibrant, dance-driven sound. Winners of major honors including the Sori Frontier Award and KBS Best Group, they have electrified stages from WOMEX to Glastonbury and Tiny Desk. With their 2025 EP Let’s Dance!, they continue turning tradition into bold, contemporary celebration.
