The Asia Culture Center Foundation (President Kim Seonok, hereinafter referred to as 'ACC Foundation') announced on the 27th that it is recruiting domestic cultural and arts institutions to participate in the distribution of ACC's original children's performances.

This public offering, which is being implemented for the first time this year, has been prepared to provide excellent performance viewing opportunities to children and families nationwide by revitalizing the distribution of ACC's original children's performances.

The distributed works include three pieces that have gained great popularity among audiences: the puppet show "Kkalkkalnamu," the children's musical "Sia and Friends: Treasure Hunters," and the environmental play "Where Should We Go?"

"Kkalkkalnamu," based on the Central Asian folktale "Jeztiknar, Peri, and Mamai," is a moving story that reminds us of the precious values of life and the importance of nature?things we cannot see but must remember and protect?through a journey of friendship and adventure.

Next, "Sia and Friends: Treasure Hunters" is a children's musical where audiences encounter precious treasures from various regions of Asia, such as ancient books of wisdom passed down for thousands of years and beloved, brave heroes.

Additionally, "Where Should We Go?," based on the Malaysian picture fairy tale "Elephant Hill," contains a story that encourages reflection on human selfishness by depicting the plight of animals and people suffering from reckless development.

This public offering, which runs until the 14th of next month, is open to all domestic cultural and arts institutions with registered performance venues in accordance with the Performance Act. The ACC Foundation plans to select six institutions through a screening process and will support part of the performance expenses as well as performance planning and operation. The selected institutions will be responsible for part of the expenses, as well as performance management and promotion.
