Jindo-gun to Publicly Present National Intangible Cultural Heritage Jindo Dasiraegi on the 4th

[Jindo=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Jae-kyung] On the 4th (Saturday) at 3:30 PM, Jindo-gun, Jeollanam-do will hold a public event for Jindo Dasiraegi, a national intangible cultural heritage, at the Jindo-gun Intangible Cultural Heritage Transmission Center.

Jindo Dasiraegi is a folk play performed in the Jindo area during funerals, especially when the deceased has lived a full and happy life. The village pallbearers comfort the bereaved family and stay up all night with them, praying for the deceased's peaceful passage to paradise.

Sponsored by the Cultural Heritage Administration, the National Intangible Heritage Center, and the Korea Cultural Heritage Foundation, this public event features the holders and transmitters of Jindo Dasiraegi who annually reveal the entire process of Dasiraegi to the general public.

This event is held to raise awareness of traditional culture and to inherit and develop our unique folk culture.

Meanwhile, Jindo-gun has applied to the Cultural Heritage Administration to register Jindo's representative funeral and burial cultures, including Dasiraegi, designated as a national intangible cultural heritage in February 1985, as well as Ssikkimgut and Manga, as UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage.
