ADG7 (Ak Dan Gwang Chil) is a multi-award-winning Korean ensemble that blends shamanic ritual music and folk traditions with pop, funk, and an irresistible stage presence. By combining traditional Korean instruments such as the daegeum, saenghwang, ajaeng, gayageum, and percussion with powerful vocals, the group offers a fresh take on Gut (ritual music) and Minyo (folk songs) from the Korean region of Hwanghae-do, transforming them into joyful, rousing performances full of humor, zest for life, and collective exuberance.

ADG7 was founded in 2015 to commemorate Korea’s liberation and conveys themes such as freedom and reunification through a lively, danceable sound. As winners of major awards such as the Sori Frontier Award and the KBS Best Group Award, they have already thrilled audiences on stages ranging from WOMEX to Glastonbury to Tiny Desk. With their EP “Let’s Dance!”, released in 2025, they continue to transform tradition into a bold, contemporary celebration of life.
