Synopsis

Kkokdugaksi means kind of a dance, a song, and a game. Kkokdugaksi is also a symbol of a funeral, a woman, and a doll. Therefore, Kkokdugaksi is also a marionette, the personification of passivity. We wanted to create a work that embodies this ambiguity. On stage, everyone, be they a dancer or a musician dances, sings and plays. While playing, the subject and object, and the place of domination and oppression are switching positions while reconstructing the space in which the subject, who is only a bundle of objects, is othering the subject itself by othering the object.

Gomool x Goblin Party


Music coterie Gomool started as a research group for those who majored in performance, composition, and theory of Korean traditional music. Since then, it converted to a performance group in 2005, and currently four members are producing musical content themselves while engaging in creative activities with many Gomool friends. At first, Gomool started dealing with the issues that creative works with traditional musical backgrounds have. That led the group to face issues in the way traditional music itself was perceived and pursue alternative perceptions. Then this process was put together as a performance. Since 2009, it has released a number of staged documentaries.


The Goblin Party is a party of people resembling Korean goblins who charm people with their extraordinary powers and talents. Without having a representative, everyone works as a choreographer who makes dances together and dances together. Based on contemporary dance, the party focuses on the audience and pursues works that can broaden the perspectives of the audience.
