Remember “One Dance” by the Seoul Metropolitan Dance Company that totally wowed New York?
The choreographers behind it — Kim Sung-hoon, Kim Jae-duck, and Jung Hye-jin — just won Best Choreographer / Creator at the Bessie Awards, often called the Oscars of dance 🏆
What makes this even crazier? This is the first time ever a Korean work — and Korean choreographers — have taken home a Bessie Award.
“One Dance” is a modern reinterpretation of the ritual dance from Jongmyo Jeryeak, a Korean National Intangible Cultural Heritage and a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.
It blends tradition with contemporary movement so beautifully — you can really feel the elegance, restraint, and power of Korean dance in every step.
Huge respect, and honestly… can’t wait to see what they create next 👏✨
