Choreographer Eun-Jeong Shin translates the gestures of everyday Korean life into a contemporary stage language. From the marketplace calls of street vendors, to the ritualistic scrubbing in public bathhouses, to ceremonial acts within wedding traditions—her work expands these familiar scenes, rich with social and emotional resonance, into the vocabulary of dance. At the heart of her inquiry lies the question: “Can the gestures of today become the traditions of tomorrow?”

Rooted in Korean dance yet moving beyond mere reenactment, Shin reimagines these embodied practices through a contemporary sensibility, offering audiences not only a reconfiguration of tradition but also a shared, corporeal experience of community.
