March 24, 2022 Alice Mieles

Seoul is the business and cultural hub of South Korea, where skyscrapers tower over Buddhist temples. Take it all in from the N Seoul Tower, built atop a peak in Namsan Park. The teahouses and shops of Insadong give you a taste of Korean flavor, which you can further experience with a visit to the grounds and museums of Gyeongbokgung. UNESCO World Heritage Site Changdeokgung Palace is a fine example of authentic ancient architecture.

SA.CHOOM Theater

The show must go on. 13 years on, 5,000 continuous performances later, Sachoom, this original dance musical is reborn as S.02. “LET’S DANCE, CRAZY!!” Sachoom season2. Ultimately, dynamic and youthful dancers embrace the movements with enthusiasm. Playful anticipation awaits us as the whole audience and performers alike rapture into a festive atmosphere. Narrative dissolves into an ever engaging performative event. Following the actions on the stage, combining various influences and styles as Hip-Hop, breakdance, urban, modern dance, jazz, disco, tango, K-Pop Dance into what we might experience as inner desires. Together Let’s Dance, CRAZY. Three friends; Jun, Sun and Bin will move us. Bold and powerful narrative dances into us. Dance is too important to be just for the youth, with magnanimous gestures everyone would be brought to a state of catharsis and furious joy. This is consistent with the concept of Sachoom. “Dancing must be experienced not merely seen.”
