Taepyeongmu Instruction Hall (태평무 전수관)

Overview

Gang Seonyeong, who devoted a lifetime to traditional dance, built the Taepyeongmu Instruction Hall at her own expense in 1998 in her hometown of Anseong for the proper initiation into, and the preservation of traditional dance. Taepyeongmu dance is a traditional court dance that embodies the continuing hope for the nation to exist in peace. The dancers are adorned in magnificent regal costumes and execute enthusiastic movements, alternating steps while in serene repose. The center has a large performance hall with dance performances every Saturday and a museum displaying Taepyeongmu dance-related materials and folk articles from around the world.
