[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yeo Jong-gu] Gyeongju Expo Park will offer a free traditional children's dance workshop and piano recital on the 15th.

The Expo Cultural Academy will hold a Korean traditional dance class featuring Korean paintings by artist Park Dae-sung, whose works are housed in the Solgeo Art Museum, as part of its social contribution, providing young visitors with an opportunity to experience traditional cultural arts.

The ‘Kkokdugaksi Dance’ workshop, accompanied by traditional Korean paintings, will be held twice on the 15th at 4 PM and 5 PM, with up to 20 participants each session, and will be co-hosted by the Rieo Arts Troupe through their talent donation.

On the day of the workshop at the Cultural Academy, a 50-minute session will include an explanation of Korean paintings (works by Park Dae-sung in the Solgeo Art Museum) and learning about the origins, lyrics, and dance movements of the ‘Kkokdugaksi Dance’ by the Rieo Arts Troupe.

Children who wish to participate can pre-register through the Solgeo Art Museum website or apply on-site at the Cultural Academy. The workshop is open to children aged 4 to 13, and those under 6 must be accompanied by a parent.

The Expo Cultural Academy is a space established to promote regional cultural arts development and provide opportunities for cultural enjoyment. It is available for use by local artists and serves as an open studio and arts education venue.

From 1 PM on the same day, a piano recital will be held in the lobby on the first floor of the Cultural Center, featuring a talent donation by Lee Yoon-jung, an employee working at Gyeongju Tower.

The recital will include performances of Canon Variations, Flower Dance, Carousel of Life, Love Affair, Chaconne, Turkish March, and On a Wonderful Day in October. Another recital will be held on the 29th.

Ryu Hee-rim, CEO of Gyeongju Expo Park, said, “I hope visitors to the park will have a meaningful time enjoying the beautiful piano melodies along with the colorful autumn atmosphere and directly experiencing our traditional paintings and dance.”
