Shinsi ? the Celebration of the Sun
The dance performance "Shinsi ? the Celebration of the Sun" was produced to commemorate the 70th anniversary of Korea's independence. The myth of Dangun, the legendary founder of Korea's first kingdom Gojoseon, along with the history and culture of the ancient times are depicted in this performance. Due to the lack of official resources, the costumes and props were made on the basis of China's Hongshan culture, which is considered the same period as that of Dangun. With extravagant, spectacular elements, some 50 dancers show dynamic and intense dance and the duet dance performed by Hwanung and Ungnyeo, the father and mother of Dangun, expresses peace and love. Announcing the birth of a new Korea that will exist for the next 5,000 years, "Shinsi" heightens the pride of both Korean people and Korean culture.
