Traditional South Korean musicians each carry a ‘taepyeongso’, a Korean double reed wind instrument, before their performance on the first day of the Yeouido Cherry Blossom Festival in Seoul, on April 8, 2025. This year's festival was postponed from its original start date of April 4 to April 8 due to the Constitutional Court's verdict on former president Yoon Suk Yeol, who was removed from office over his declaration of martial law.
