South Korea Highlights UNESCO-Listed Wetland Conservation Efforts
Venerable Taeho demonstrates the Beopgo drum at Heungguksa Temple in Yeosu, South Korea, on May 28, 2026. The four ceremonial instruments play an important role in Korean Buddhist practice, with each symbolically representing different realms of living beings, including animals on land, aquatic life, birds, and those believed to suffer in the afterlife. The Beopgo drum represents animals on land, the Mogeo (wooden fish) symbolizes aquatic life, the Unpan cloud-shaped gong is associated with birds and creatures of the sky, and the Beomjong bell is rung for all beings, including those suffering in the afterlife, according to Korean Buddhist tradition.
