Marriage of Buddhism and modern dance

By Kwon Mee-yoo

Masked dancers run through gilded Buddhist statues on stage and roll over with them. The dancers also pile up plastic baskets on stage and knock them down, as if symbolizing Koreans accepting and consuming new culture rapidly.

This is the Korea National Contemporary Dance Company (KNCDC)'s "Bul-ssang," which will be staged on Friday and Saturday at Main Hall Hae of National Theater of Korea on Mount Nam.
