Chongbong Band
Chongbong Band (Korean: 청봉악단) is a North Korean light music choir and orchestra. The group consists of seven members: singers and instrumentalists playing mainly brass instruments. According to KCNA, the band members are instrumentalists of the Wangjaesan Art Troupe and singers of the Moranbong Band's chorus.
The Chongbong Band was formed in late July 2015. The creation of the band has been attributed to North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. Kim's wife, former singer Ri Sol-ju, is said to have been involved in the formation of the Band. The Chongbong Band's appearance at the time that another pop group, the Moranbong Band, disappeared sparked rumors about it being a replacement for the latter. However, the Moranbong Band reappeared on 7 September 2015, a week after the Chongbong Band made its public debut in Moscow, Russia.
