The craftsmanship of the huqin is very particular. The craftsmen of the past dynasties have used the thorn wood of the Changbai Mountain area with excellent wood and wood grain as the vibration panel, the bamboo with an inner diameter of 10 cm as the qin barrel, the silk as the strings, and the horse tail. and thin bamboo poles to make bows.

After generation after generation of practice and innovation, sycamore wood is gradually used instead of thorn wood as the vibration panel, and steel wire is used instead of silk as the strings. The playing method has also been improved. At the same time, it draws on the playing technique of the violin to make it perform better.

The huqin has a long history. When Japanese militarism invaded China, the national cultural heritage was trampled on and the art of huqin was interrupted. After the founding of New China, the huqin production and performance art of the Korean people in Yanbian gradually recovered and developed. Many Korean artists performed huqin solos on domestic and foreign art stages, which were warmly welcomed by Chinese and foreigners.
