Abstract
A Reconsideration on Kim Suk-ja's Chronology of Dancing Activities ×

This study aims to reorganize the chronology of the deceased Kim Suk-ja's life as a dancer, the holder of the National Intangible Cultural Asset No. 97, Salpuri dance. In particular, the chronologies of Kim's dancing activities presented in the pamphlets of her memorial concert which has been held for 10 years after her death show inconsistency and errors. Therefore, this study attempts to correct them. She had carved a place for herself as a traditional dancer while doing activities as a Shamanic dancer in Seoul since 1976. As a result, part of her chronology that displayed the schedules of her activities since then was made public by newspapers and therefore is reliable. On the other hand, information on dancing-related activities from the Japanese colonial era to the 1960s by Kim Suk-ja, who was born in 1927, is unclear. Her chronology during this period does not sufficiently reflect her dancing activities or provides incorrect information. Therefore, this study corrects and reorganizes her aspects of learning dances during her early years and information on her activities in Daejeon from historical contexts.
