Korean new composition dance 달의 흥취

'Merriment of the Moon ' An aging 'kisaeng' (a woman educated in performing arts, such as dancing, singing and playing traditional Korean instrument) recalled memories of her earlier life one moonlit night. Inspired by the beauty of the moon and recollections of her youth, she starts to dance. Based partly on "soo-kung-ga" (a Korean pansori), it is a bittersweet performance full of joy and humor.
