The Wangjaesan Light Music Band is a music group in North Korea. It was established by North Korean leader Kim Jong Il on 22 July 1983.
Its music is often broadcast over Korean Central Broadcasting Station channels such as Radio Pyongyang.
It takes its name from Mt. Wangjae in Onsong-gun, North Hamgyong Province, on the border with China, where Kim Il Sung is said to have held a meeting for anti-Japanese activities in 1933.
