The National Intangible Heritage Center of the Cultural Heritage Administration (Director Park Panyong) will host a permanent performance titled 'WITH Intangible Heritage' at the National Intangible Heritage Center Grand Theater on the 25th at 7:30 pm and the 26th at 4 pm under the theme 'Yoonseul, Each Shining Wave Together,' where people with disabilities and non-disabled individuals come together.

In this performance planned around the disabled culture and arts community 'Saramsarang' established in 2011, artists with visual, physical, intellectual, and auditory disabilities will showcase their abilities, shedding light on the new possibilities of traditional arts and the value of cultural inclusivity. 'Saramsarang' is a cultural arts professional organization that has been consistently promoting disabled arts education, welfare facility performances, and traditional music stages involving people with disabilities under the slogan "Turning disabilities into art, and art into sharing."

This performance will feature various programs such as 'Samulnori' based on percussion play, 'Music Nan-ta' combining percussion and melody, and 'Chunangjeon and Morandance' showcasing the beauty of court dance, with collaborations between disabled and non-disabled individuals conveying the expansiveness and emotional impact of traditional arts simultaneously.

In particular, in the stage of Pansori 'Sugungga' sung by the visually impaired 'Boseong Sori' Choi Yena, National Intangible Heritage Pansori (Gobeop) holder Kim Cheongman will join to deliver a deeper resonance, while veteran traditional artists like Kim Younggil, former artistic director of the National Gugak Center's Folk Music Band, will present a solo performance of 'Ajaeng Sanjo,' adding artistic depth to the performance. Through the participation of these two venerable figures who have preserved tradition in the Korean traditional music scene for a long time, the performance will transcend a simple stage, evolving into a symbolic art space where generations and experiences, tradition and the present converge.

This performance is free to attend, and reservations can be made starting from 9 am on the 16th through the National Intangible Heritage Center's website (www.nihc.go.kr). For more information, inquiries can be made by phone (063-280-1500, 1501).
