Sogochum

Sogo Dance (a small, hand-held drum dance) is originated from the farmers’ dance, Nongak, in varied forms, styles and scales. The virtual dance, Sogochum, reimagines kinesthetic excitement, spontaneity, and informality of the farmers’ dance taken place in an individual dancers’ domestic and local areas, sourcing the rhythms and movements of Choi-Jong-Sil-ryu Sogochum which is renowned for its complex and exhilarating sogo play.
