Dance, Dance, Dance: The King and the Clown

This clip is from a dance competition show called ‘Dancing 9.’ It’s a show I enjoy and although it’s all in Korean, dance does not need to be translated. Out of all the dances shown, I chose to post this one because it was just purely beautiful. It might not touch the hearts of some as much as it affected me but it was so great I just wanted to share.

The concept was taken from the movie ‘The King and the Clown (왕의 남자).’ This film was a huge hit in Korea and the movie itself is a work of art. I highly recommend watching it. Both dancers are contemporary dancers, Kim Seol Jin and Han Sun Chun. Personally, I find Kim Seol Jin to be a better dancer but he tends to hide in the background and let his partner(s) shine on stage. Together, they were so great at acting and dancing, and just expressing the music. This is from episode 8 of Season 3.
