Korean Folk Village, Gyeonggi Province
Performing “Pungmul” or “Nongak” (Farmer’s music), the traditional drum dance, with dancers playing small “sogo” drums, wearing “sangmo” hats with a long ribbon that is twirled around while they march and sometimes perform acrobatic moves. These kind of performances were traditionally performed in rice farming villages in order to ensure and to celebrate good harvests.
