"Buk" have been used for Korean music since the period of the Three Kingdoms of Korea (57 BC – 668 AD) in light of mural paintings in Anak Tomb of Goguryeo (37 BC – 668 AD) and records of Book of Sui on the kingdoms, Goguryeo and Baekje (18 BC – 660 AD). In the 3rd of Anak Tomb, two types of buk are depicted in the paintings titled "Juakdo" (주악도, , "painting of playing music") and "Haengryeoldo" (행렬도, , "painting of marching") such as "ipgo" (입고, ) and "damgo" (담고, ) respectively. The "ipgo" is a buk that performers beat as standing, while the "damgo" is a "buk" that drummers strike as carrying it on their shoulder.
