Pansori is performed with a fan in hand. A pansori singer uses a combination of chang (song), sasol (narration), and ballim (dramatic gesture) to tell a story. Meanwhile, the drummer provides the appropriate rhythmic setting for each song. The art of pansori was declared as an “intangible cultural asset” in 1964 by the South Korean government.
