MM,<\/p>\n

In light of a recent ritual involving dance and music, I’m reminded of something I still want to study one day (assuming I ever get the time) – Korean sword dance.<\/p>\n

Here’s a video of probably the best Korean sword dancer<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Sword dancing seems to be a tradition in Korea, as there are quite a few movies featuring it. One of my all-time favourite movies, The Duelist (Hyung-sa)<\/em> which happens to be Korean, features a beautiful dance\/”fight” scene<\/a> between the two main characters. The man is using a sword and the woman is using two daggers. A beautiful scene – best understood in the context of the whole movie.<\/p>\n

I might just have to return to gumdo classes, if I can’t find a Korean sword dance teacher.<\/p>\n
