The “Buchaeipchum,” fan dance, a newly-choreographed dance from the mid-twentieth century in which dancers dance with colorfully decorated hand-held fans, is characterized by the balance between straight and curved lines with delicate movements. Further, the fan dance shows the nuanced variations in the shape of a fan made by its folding and unfolding with the stylized movement of Korean folk-derived dance. This “Buchaeipchum” from the Park Suk-ja school is one of various versions.
