The irresistible Korean wave in contemporary dance

“Body, dancing, technique… overpower the audience!” Yeongnamilbo, Korea

When it comes to contemporary dance scene in Korea, Hong Seung-yup should be the first name to remember. His ability to craft dance movement is described as unique. Together with his gift in expressing human introversion, his beautiful productions have brought him international awards.

Hong Seung-yup leads Daegu Contemporary Dance Company to Hong Kong with “Moon-Looking Dog“ and “I Saw the Elephant”. “Moon-Looking Dog” was invited to Lyon Dance Biennale of France in 2000, seeking the inner self within the modern identity; “I Saw the Elephant” questions the nature of thing, urging the reuse of mind’s eye. DCDC will visit Hong Kong for the first time, presenting the beauty of contemporary Korean culture in a night!
