Abstract
The Dance Aesthetics of Han Sung-jun and Kang Sun-Young as Revealed in Jeukhungmu+ ×


This study examines how Han Seongjun’s aesthetics in Jeukheungmu were transmitted to Gang Seonyeong. Using documents from the Joseon Music and Dance Institute and oral accounts from Gang and her successor Gim Miran, the study employs an interpretive method. Han’s instruction- “gcombine the learned movements and create your own dance”-shows his view of Jeukheungmu as a form of individuality and inner freedom. Gang embodied this lineage through affective contrasts of stillness and sudden release and the coexistence of joy and sorrow. Testimony on the “six movements” confirms Jeukheungmu as a core creative-pedagogical system reflecting Han’s aesthetics. This study clarifies how freedom and emotion are inherited within Korean dance.
