Abstract
The Study of Kim Su-ak’s Salpuri-chum ×

This study is about the Kim Su-ak’s Salpuri-chum focusing on Jinju region. The methods of studying are direct learning and collecting basic sources such as interviews and technical training from Kim Su-ak. Kim Su-ak first acquired Salpuri-chum while learning various dances from Choi Soon-i who was a dancing master of Jinju Gwonbeon (Female Entertainers’ School in Jinju Region). But she formed her own syle Salpuri-chum with adding her artistic talents. The progress of this study was as follows: first, learned the formation of Kim’s Salpuri-chum. Second, analyzed the features of Kim’s Salpuri-chum while dividing the dance into incidental music, important dance phrase, and aesthetic characteristics. As the result, both Kim’s Salpuri-chum and Salpuri-chum in Jinju Gwonbeon style give strong feelings to the dancer or the audience with the pleasure rather than the sorrow; also these dances suggest a dynamic image rather than a static image. While as Kim’s Salpuri-chum is recognized artistic value, but unfortunately, the dance was not been designated as intangible cultural heritage. Therefore the rate for learning students for this dance is relatively decreased. However, this dance perfectly contains a unique and intact form of local dance movements in Youngnam (Southern regions of Korea), so that the study of this dance will be playing a role to reveal the historicity of Jinju dance. Also, I hope to enlarge various bases of Kim’s Salpuri-chum.
