MORE ABOUT: Dulsori (literally ‘ heartbeat of the land ’ ), formed in 1984, primarily aims to rekindle the spirit of ancient festival sharing the inner-energy through the art form that can enrich our life. Festival is the place where everyone’s energy mingles together creating a sense of pleasure in a collective manner. Dulsori can never reach this dream alone and that’s why we always invite the audience to join the show.

The fundamental basis of our creative work is a Korean percussion play. Since the beginning of Dulsori, we have tried many different kinds of performances based on the traditional rhythm of Korea. As a result, we have developed unique performances and interactive programs. We believe that creating a sense of community is important in any cultures.

Our performances and interactive programs attempt to build harmony and unity of community among the audience members and performers.

Our energetic and passionate team has staged hundreds of international performances and recently toured Hong Kong, Singapore, Australia, Israel, Africa and across Europe. We also conduct workshops, classes and camps on Korean traditional arts and are open to all age groups.

Dulsori brings you such an experience of overwhelming togetherness. Dulsori’s performance taps into intrinsic human emotions of hatred, fear and fury and translates them into a highly amazing energy. Through singing and dancing along with the powerful sound of drum, the show warms your heart filling it with joy. Dulsori will let you experience the true fever of the ancient festival.
