ADG7: Korean Shamanic Folk-Pop

Korean Folk Pop Artists with fans


Co-presented with Korean Cultural Center New York, Flushing Town Hall is proud to present the first international artist since the pandemic. With one foot in the world of tradition and another in glitzy upbeat pop, Ak Dan Gwang Chil (ADG7) is a multi-award winning group featuring three powerhouse female folk singers and a rich repertoire inspired by Korea's sacred, shamanic ritual music (gut) and beloved folk songs (minyo) of Hwanghae Province in the northern reaches of the Peninsula. Their powerful performances engage and immerse like no other, presenting the spiritual blessings and positive energy of traditional music in a thoroughly modern and often comical style.
