The jing is a large gong that is widely used in farmer, shaman, Buddhist, and military music. It is made
using high-quality brass. The jing used in farmers music is, on average, 33 centimeters to 38 centimeters
in diameter; the one used in court music is slightly larger, while shamans use slightly smaller ones. It is
struck with a padded stick for a softer tone. In samullori, the jing serves to keep the beat. Depending on
how hard it is struck, it either gives a gentle, lingering sound or a big, magnificent sound with lots of
reverberation.

- Bangjja, also known as yugi, is a Korean type of hand-forged bronzeware. The main difference between Korean bronzeware or Banjja from other bronzeware is the alloy ratio of copper to tin. The Bangjja contains much more tin than other bronzewares (Cu:Sn = 78:22 as volume) while the normal ratio of tin to copper is 1/9. Due to this compositional difference, bangjja (unlike other kinds of bronzeware) can be sterilized. For this reason, it has historically been used as tableware for the royal families of Korea. Bangjja is used for the traditional presentation of Korean royal court cuisine (surasang).
