[Asia Economy Reporter Park Byung-hee] The Russian "Aifman Ballet" has canceled its scheduled performance in Korea this May.


LG Arts Center announced on the 4th that the ballet company conveyed their position, stating, "With the Russian government advising against travel to Korea and the mandatory two-week quarantine after the Korea tour, which inevitably affects tours in Russia and Europe, it has become difficult to continue with the Korean performance."


The Aifman Ballet was scheduled to present "The Brothers Karamazov" and "Anna Karenina" at the LG Arts Center in Seoul from May 13 to 17.



The Aifman Ballet was founded in 1977 by Boris Aifman, a two-time recipient of Europe's most prestigious "Golden Mask Award." The company has gained worldwide attention by reinterpreting classic works by Tolstoy, Dostoevsky, Chekhov, and others into ballet performances.
