The person in the foreground is gamin, who is an expert on Korean court music. In this clip, however, she is playing a well-known Korean folk music. Speaking of Korean court music, it is very interesting that somehow Chinese court music of some form survived in Korean and Japanese music. People had to painstakingly reconstruct Chinese court music after the mess of wars in the early 20th century as well as the cultural damage done by the communists; no one knows if the reconstruction is authentic or not. See this link for details. Here's gamin's homepage.
