Celebrate Lunar New Year with Brooklyn Public Library’s Heritage Ambassador, Vong Pak. Listen as Vong Pak interviews Chi-Chung Kim, a Pungmul player (Korean percussive music) who launched Korean folklore on the East Coast. Why does he still play Pungmul after 70 years? What does Korean music mean to him? Join us for this virtual program.
