Here’s the latest tune (from 1st March 2009) to Seoul Metro’s subway lines 1-4, played when reaching interchanges. In it, you can hear the Korean traditional – 1) fiddle (haegeum 해금), 2) flute (daegeum 대금), 3) zither (kayageum 가야금) 4) hourglass-shaped drum (janggu 장구) The tune is from the 9th Part of 얼씨구야 Aul sshi gu ya, a classical Korean piece by 28-year-old Kim Baek Chan.This composer was also responsible for the song “Ssang Hwa Jeom” in the 2008 movie of the same name (English title: The Frozen Flower)
