Ryujin have released a music video for “EASTERN SPIRITS – Live at Hoonji Temple,” though the performance itself was recorded on December 14, 2021.
The footage captures the band in a rare, ritual-like setting, where traditional atmosphere and modern metal power intersect. Even with the time gap between recording and second release, the live take emphasizes Ryujin’s core concept: channeling Eastern spiritual motifs through disciplined heaviness and ceremonial pacing rather than studio polish. The temple setting adds historical gravity, turning the performance into documentation rather than spectacle.
