The main purpose of this study is to understand and analyze the trend of the Korean classical music chamber orchestra from the late 20th century to the present. The study identifies and summarizes their features. At the end of the study, we raise the remaining issues. It is a meaningful study to grasp the Korean music history. The activities of Korean classical music chamber orchestra date back to the 1980s. In the 1980s, there was a change in the Korean traditional music industry due to the changes in the social awareness about economic development and culture. The activities of the Korean classical chamber music have changed the Korean music industry quantitatively and qualitatively. In 1985, the first Korean traditional chamber music group called ‘Seul Gi Doong’ (Sŭlgidung 슬기둥) was founded. In the mid-1980s, the Korean Traditional chamber music movement began in the name of ‘popularization of Korean classical music.’ The Korean traditional chamber orchestra is now with us for about 30 years. In this study, the Korean classical chamber music is divided into five categories. ① The first generation of chamber music group, ② Hybrid music through negotiation between genres, or fusion music, ③ Contemporary music group, ④ Reinterpretation of traditional music, ⑤ Music on the border between popular music and Korean traditional music. The paper finds the characteristics of each category of chamber music.
