Traditional musicians and performers from Korea’s Chungbuk province brought their art to Tuy Hoa city’s central stage in Phu Yen Sunday night.
The central province sent their Sao Bien traditional musical troupe to join the show, showcasing a combination of ethnic instrumental using dan da (lithophone) and ken da (stone harmonica) together with other central folk music.
On their part, Korean artists captivated audience with their dazzling performances, including mask dance, sogo (small hand drum) dance, beona (spinning hoops and dishes) and a Korean’s symbolic folk song, Arirang, which is considered as Korea’s unofficial national anthem.
The event, said a senior official, will serve as an opportunity to promote cultural values of Korea and Vietnam, and strengthen tourism ties between the two.
