Dancing Seoul to Soul – SeoulHong KongEncounter
Korea isn’t just all about K-Pop.
Ryu Seok-hun, Lee Yun-kyung, Yun Min-suk. Three glittering stars of contemporary choreography from Seoul. They are bringing two works that showcase the independent spirit of Korean dance, blending cultural traditions with contemporary insight.
Ryu is the Gold Medalist of the Japan International Ballet and Modern Dance competition. Lee is a professor and often seen on stage at major international dance festivals. Together they create The Road from the best loved folksong “A-Ri-Rang”.
Yun is the choreographer of the French film Milan A.C, an active force of the French arts scene before returning to his native Korea. He brings together traditional music and contemporary dance into Miscellaneous Thoughts on men and life.
In response, Hong Kong Dance Company’s Principal Dancer Huang Lei creates a new work Passing Shadows, exploring human emotions and state of mind.
Artists from Seoul and Hong Kong come together at Platform 8/F to push the boundaries of choreography and traditions.
