Ambiguous Dance Company announced on the 13th that it will hold the dance festival "2024 Festival 99.9" from June 8 to 15 at the outdoor stage of Sebitseom, Banpo Hangang Park, Seocho-gu, Seoul.

During the festival, audiences can watch Ambiguous Dance Company's past dance works for free. In addition to stage performances, there will also be time for conversations with the audience.

The performance program will feature various stages with different themes such as "Body Concert," "Eol Isseokda," "Coexistence & Mistakes," "Bolle FH & Gigamakhin Heung," and "Human Rhythm." On the opening and closing days of the festival, a DJ club will be operated.

Founded in 2011, Ambiguous Dance Company is a domestic contemporary dance group that pursues original and diverse artistic attempts beyond conventional ideas, true to its name meaning "ambiguous dance company."

In 2020, they became widely known to the general public through the Korea Tourism Organization promotional video "Feel the Rhythm of Korea," in which they appeared together with the band "Nillachi." Since then, they have continued active performances by invitation at theaters both domestically and internationally, including The Coronet Theatre in the UK and ACACHON CRAVEY Theatre in Arcachon, France.

A representative of Ambiguous Dance Company said, "'Festival 99.9' is significant as the first dance festival hosted by an arts organization in Korea," adding, "Through Ambiguous Dance Company's artistic world and the stage theater they have directly established, we will present a new paradigm of dance performances to the citizens of Seoul."
