Geomungo müziği değişik, daha önce dinlememiştim. Performans iyi ama bazı parçalar fazla uzun geldi. CD kaliteli ancak kargolama biraz gecikti.

I bought this CD because I like geomungo music. The sound quality is pretty good for a live performance. It captures the whole essence of it without interruptions, but some tracks are longer than I’d expected. Not my favorite color cover art, though.

I listened to Kim Moo-gil’s CD in my car. The sound of the geomungo is deep and clear. Tracks flowed well together, though some sections felt longer than I liked. Worth a listen for fans of traditional music.

أحب هذا الألبوم، الموسيقى فيها ممتعة وعميقة. استمتعت بكل لحن وأنا أستمع له أثناء العمل في المنزل. الحافظة جاءت أنيقة، وتحتوي على كل المعلومات الضرورية عن الأغاني.

Kupiłem tę płytę z ciekawości. Geomungo brzmi dość unikalnie, a gra jest niesamowita. Może brakuje bardziej współczesnych dźwięków, ale dla fanów tradycyjnej muzyki to hit. Przesyłka dotarła po tygodniu i lekko się różni w kolorze od okładki.
Rowan – Austin, USA –
The CD is different from what I usually listen to. Kim’s geomungo style has its own charm, and the depth shows in each piece. Jinyangjo stands out with slow beauty that grabbed my attention. Shipping was a bit slow though.

Bardzo dobry album. Słucha się go świetnie podczas pracy w tle. Jakość nagrania jest naprawdę dobra, a muzyka relaksuje i motywuje. Doceniłem tradycyjny styl gry na geomungo, bardzo dobrze oddany tutaj.
