KOREA UNESCO World Cultural Heritage - Ganggangsullae Circle Dance
Korea and the rest of East Asia, engaged in rice farming for several millennia, have formed
a rice culture that can be compared to the wheat culture of Europe. Ganggangsullae is one
of the most representative seasonal rituals of Korea’s rice farming culture, which
permeates nearly every aspect of life among Koreans.
Ganggangsullae gives hints about the origins of recreational music and dance emblematic
of the Korean peninsula, as it used to be widely performed in the southwestern coastal
region of the peninsula and is closely linked to inland circle dances accompanying music,
including Notdari Bapgi (Walking Over a Human Bridge) and Wolwoli Cheongcheong
(Moon, Moon, Radiant Moon).
A combination of various recreational elements based on the basic form of holding
hands to form a circle while singing and dancing, Ganggangsullae has been named as
such since the refrain “ganggangsullae,” whose exact meaning is unknown, is repeated
with every bar.
It was originally performed by unmarried youngsters aged between 15 and 20, and
sometimes allowing the participation of recently married youngsters. But, when it was
designated as a state cultural heritage the community members, largely women in their 40s
or 50s, rendered the performance. Since then, Ganggangsullae has been handed down by
middle-aged female members of the community, displaying proficient skills, rather than the
creative vividness and dynamics of youngsters when they perform it.
Traditionally, Ganggangsullae was performed on Korea’s representative seasonal
occasions, including Seol (the lunar New Year), Daeboreum (the first full moon day of the
year), Dano (the fifth day of the fifth lunar month), Baekjung (the fifteenth day of the seventh
lunar month), Chuseok (the fifteenth day of the eighth lunar month), and Junggu (the ninth
day of the ninth lunar month), with the one on Chuseok being the largest.
As such, Ganggangsullae has been developed into a performance most commonly
conducted on Chuseok (Korea’s Thanksgiving). Under the bright full moon, dozens of young
village women hold hands to form a circle and sing and dance. While the sun symbolizes men, and the moon, women, and women’s physical features
are represented by a round shape, Ganggangsullae assumes the characteristics of the law of imitation, one of the laws of magic, reflecting primitive
aesthetics. Because the dancing is strenuous, only young women are allowed to perform, but it is also their privilege as women of child-bearing age.
