This study aims to reassess the distinctiveness and competitiveness of the Jeonju Daesaseup Festival, a traditional Korean music competition, and explore the utility of its various contents. To achieve this, the research analyzes the Daesaseup Festival evaluation sheets and observations of the competition and performance venues. The results of the study are as follows: Firstly, it is necessary to introduce differentiated competition categories and performances, as well as seminars for storytelling, folk music, dance, archery, and poetry, which are integral parts of the Daesaseup Festival. Secondly, historical sites such as Unhyeongung Palace, Jeolla Gamyeong, and Hanok Village can be transformed into tourist and cultural zones by integrating them with the competition and performances. Thirdly, the system of citizen judges should be adjusted to reflect a fair balance of gender and region. Reevaluation and careful management of the selection and operation of judges are necessary to ensure the fairness of the competition, and expansion of meticulous post-appointment management programs is also required. This study places significance on the historical aspect of the Jeonju Daesaseup Festival and its distinctiveness compared to other traditional art competitions.

The Jeonju Daesaseumnori National Competition has a history of more than 300 years that originated from ‘Jeonju Tongincheong,’a contest established during the late Joseon dynasty. Despite the competition’s long history and tradition, it remains under-researched. Therefore, this study analyzes “Jeonju Daesaseup Dyeon”, one of the planned performances of the Jeonju Daesaseumnori Preservation Association. Based on the performance report of “Jeonju Daesaseup Dyeon,” the problems with this performance were identified and a revitalization plan was developed as follows. First, since the proportion of duplicate performers during the four-year performance accounts for more than 50%, opportunities for new winners to participate should be expanded. Second, since there are many fragmentary promotional activities, strategic promotional marketing and customer management are required. Third, since the similar performance content and format were repeated, improvements in the content of performance are necessary. It is difficult to generalize our recommendations based on only one case study. However, this study is important in that it offers insights on how to develop and revitalize the Jeonju Daesaseumnori Competition.

Jeonju Daesaseupcheong(Jeonju Traditional Culture Building), founded in 2021, introduces a permanent performance system and presents traditional art performances every Saturday. With the annual number of visitors to Jeonju Hanok Village currently reaching 10 million, if the Jeonju Daesaseupcheong's permanent performance for tourists is activated, it will have infinite potential as a traditional art content and will become an unrivaled performance. This study has examined the current status of permanent performances on Saturdays and sought ways to enhance them based on a SWOT analysis of the Jeonju Daesaseupcheong’s performance report and Steering Committee’s activities. The results of the study are as follows. First, a promotional marketing strategy needs to be designed, targeting tourists in Hanok Village as main audiences for traditional art performances. Second, pansori-based Changgeuk(Traditional Korean opera) can be developed into a permanent performance repertoire. Third, a development of participatory content creation is suggested to encourage local residents’participation. This study makes some important contributions to suggesting the operational directions for the permanent Saturday performances of the Jeonju Daesaseupcheong.

The purpose of this study is to verify the effect of ‘Playing Metaverse Meta夢’ which is an ecological environmental arts education class incorporating a metaverse platform, on elementary school students' learning reality and active learning. Eleven elementary school students in the sixth grade from “A” Elementary School in Chungbuk were selected as the participants of the study and a single group pre-and post-design was used as a research method. This class was held for a total of six weeks from April 18 to May 23, 2023, for 90 min once a week. In terms of data processing, corresponding samples t-test and ANOVA were conducted through SPSS 21.0, and the significance level was p<.05. As a result, there were significant improvements in both learning reality and active learning. The study confirms that integrated art education contents using a metaverse platform, termed as ecological environmental art education, can increase elementary school students' learning reality and active learning.

This study analyzes William Forside’s Synchronous Objects for One Flat Thing, Reproduced from a geometric perspective. This dance is a digital work presented through an online platform, which combines various fields to produce 20 objects. The work uses geometric forms to express dancers’ movements and spatial interactions in various ways. In our study, the interaction and fusion of art and geometry are explored by analyzing the dancers’ movements by means of geometric shapes such as points, lines, and planes. It analyzes how various patterns and structures are formed in space when dancers pass each other or make synchronized movements. Therefore, this study contributes to geometrically analyzing and understanding the dancers’ movements and their uses of stage space by combining dance and geometry.

The purpose of this thesis is to interpret Salpuri-chum from the perspective of Adorno's mimesis and derive its argument from an aesthetic point of view. As a research method, a literature search method was used, and theoretical horizon research was conducted centering on ^『Aesthetic Theory_』 (1984), one of Adorno's books, and research was conducted centering on theses and academic journals related to aesthetic approaches. As a result, the theoretical horizon was derived by classifying firstly the meaning of Adorno mimesis, secondly Salpuri-chum as an aesthetic study, and thirdly Salpuri-chum through Adorno mimesis. This study contains the simple desire of the researcher to further expand the artistic value of Salpuri-chum, explore and analyze it from various perspectives, and inherit the preservation value of cultural and historical importance. And it is hoped that this study will contribute to the knowledge and appreciation of Salpuri-chum in a more developed form.

Through a case analysis of small business CEOs who have accumulated social stress as a result of the pandemic of COVID-19 and participated in a dance movement therapy program, this study analyzes and reconstructs Korean dance movements in order to develop a dance movement therapy program and presents its effects. This program incorporates meditation and breathing exercises based on Oriental philosophy. In particular, the study examined the development process and results of the program in order to expand its scope and apply it to stress, menopausal disorders, depression, and anxiety that are common among the general population.

Firstly, we found that gender neutralizing the feminine dance movements would make male participants more comfortable participating in the program. In addition, the dance movement treatment program using Korean dance movements was found to be an effective alternative complementary therapy for relaxing muscles and solving physical and psychological issues. Moreover, the Korean dance-based movement therapy program, which employs movements and sensibilities that are best suited to Koreans, can further improve the health and well-being of Koreans.

This study examines the significance of Korean performing arts history by focusing on the Little Angels’ organizations and management, the composition of the repertoires, and the meaning of international performing arts history. As a semi-professional organization, the Little Angels developed and operated the member selection musician system, and toured through overseas professional management in the early days. The repertoires of the Little Angels, including Korean traditional dance, music, and choral music were staged, established and systematized as the standard repertoires during the early activities of the cultural mission. Little Angels' dance was developed to be suitable for the children's group dances and the overseas staging of the new dance, and the choral repertoire, which included Korean folk songs and world folk songs played a major role in public diplomacy. As the only 'folk art troupe' among children's art troupes active in the international performing arts world, the Little Angels helped introduce Korean performing arts to the international audiences. Through the study of the Little Angels, a children's art troupe as well as a private art troupe with a 60-year history of international activities, this paper encompassed the history of Korean contemporary performing arts in a rich and stereoscopic way.

The Little Angels is one of the organizations that has served as a cultural delegation representing Korea since the barren art world of the 1960s and 1970s. One of the most outstanding achievements of the Little Angels, which celebrates its 60th anniversary this year, is the recognition of the excellence of our dance both domestically and internationally through a variety of dance repertoires. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the dance repertoire from various angles and to examine its characteristics. The characteristics of their dance repertoire include the establishment of our own repertoire as a cultural delegation, the creation of Korean dances based on New Dance, the development of categories encompassing both songs and dances, and the composition of works centered on group dances. Further, it is also characterized by the flexibility of program composition, the use of dance moves that students can perform, the educational effects that produced future leaders in the domain, the focus on the Little Angels repertoire rather than an individual choreographer, the relatively rare copyright issues, as well as the repertoire renewal appropriate to the current era. Through this research, it is possible to confirm the historical, cultural, and artistic significance of the dance repertoire that has been passed down over the past half century.
