Yeominrak Korean 여민락 Hanja 與民樂 is one of the most celebrated pieces of traditional Korean court music. Its title means `Enjoying with the People` or `Music Shared with the People.`

Originally Yeominrak was composed to accompany the lyrics of Yongbieocheonga `Songs of the Dragons Flying to Heaven` the first literary work written in Hangul after the Korean alphabet was created. The title reflects King Sejong`s ideal that a ruler`s happiness should be shared with the people.

Over time the lyrics fell out of use and today Yeominrak is primarily performed as an instrumental work.
