The 15th arrondissement town hall, with its partners, is hosting two events focused on Korean culture. These activities will take place on Tuesday, August 11 and Wednesday, August 12, on the parvis of the 15th arrondissement town hall in Paris. Admission is free and open to everyone.
The concept behind this event is to offer an introduction to Korea’s cultural heritage through accessible demonstrations for the general public. In about thirty minutes, visitors can explore two of the country’s emblematic disciplines: the taekwondo and the traditional Korean dance.
Taekwondo, a martial art from South Korea. It is characterized by its kicking techniques, rapid footwork, and precise movements. Having become an Olympic discipline in 2000, it is now practiced in many countries. Demonstrations showcase a range of techniques, codified sequences, and drills performed by practitioners.
The program also includes a showcase of traditional Korean dance. This form highlights choreographies rooted in the country’s history, paired with traditional costumes and music drawn from the Korean repertoire. These dances hold a central place in celebrations, ceremonies, and popular festivities in Korea.
