FAQs

What is a Korean sound effect?
It is a recording of a traditional Korean instrument or percussion hit, such as a gong, an hourglass drum, a wooden clapper or a plucked zither string. Searchers usually want these as short accents for period scenes, festivals and games.
Where can I get Korean instrument sounds for a video?
Describe the instrument and how it is played, then generate it. That is faster than sifting a library for the right gong, and each sound on this page came from the prompt printed beside it, so you can start from one.
How do I make a custom Korean percussion sound?
Name the drum or gong, say how it is struck and add a quality word such as dry, bright or shimmering. A prompt like "an hourglass drum struck twice, one rim crack then one deep thump" gives Morphic plenty to work with.
What is the difference between a gong strike and a hand gong ring?
A large gong swells slowly and rings for seconds with a deep shimmer. A small hand gong is brighter, thinner and fades fast, so it suits quick signals rather than big entrances.
Can I use these Korean sounds commercially?
Yes, audio generated on paid plans can be used commercially. See our terms for full licensing details. Each sound is generated for you, so it is less likely to show up in someone else video.
Why does my gong sound muddy under dialogue?
A long gong tail can cover speech. Pick the small hand gong or the clapper snap, or end the clip early with a short fade right after the hit.
