[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Heeyoon] The National Chorus (Director and Artistic Director Yoon Euijung) will hold the creative choral collection "The Four Seasons of Korea - Nostalgic Korean Songs" at the National Theater's Haeoreum Theater on the 14th.

This performance features the National Chorus's exclusive composers Ahn Hyoyoung and Han Areum arranging nostalgic Korean songs, previously sung, into orchestral pieces. With the National Chorus's deep and rich voices, they sing sweet and cozy spring, fresh and green summer, warm and clear autumn, and romantic winter, capturing the essence of Korean songs.

"The Four Seasons of Korea - Nostalgic Korean Songs" is hosted by Kim Hyunsu, a member of the male quartet "Forte di Quattro," the inaugural winner of JTBC's "Phantom Singer." He introduces the program and adds enjoyment by singing Kim Hyogeun's "First Love" on stage.

Following this, soprano Park Mija (Professor of Vocal Music at Seoul National University College of Music), who has received acclaim through multiple collaborations with the National Chorus including "Carl Orff, Carmina Burana," and baritone Samuel Yoon (Professor of Vocal Music at Seoul National University College of Music), who has won world-class competitions and performs leading opera roles at prestigious theaters, will present solo and duet performances. Additionally, the melodies of the Klim Orchestra and the voices of the Seoul Boys and Girls Choir will further illuminate the beauty of the songs on stage.

The performance conveys the birthplace of Korean songs to the audience through familiar and beautiful choral music. Starting with composer Han Areum's "Korean Song Suite," it features Kim Yeonjun's "I Will Live in the Green Mountains," Jo Seongwon's "How (Summer Rain)," Jo Dunam's "Boat Song," Kim Seontae's "Childlike Heart," and finally Kim Hyogeun's "Snow," presenting the four seasons of Korea embodied in these songs to the audience.
