Last evening (25th September 2009) my wife and I attended the Saranghaeyo Korea Dance Concert at the 1Borneo Grand Ballroom. "Saranghaeyo" which means "love" in the korean language highlighted the appreciation of both the Sabahan and Korean culture.The festival held for the first time in Sabah was also to mark the celebration of Malaysia and South Kore's 50th Anniversary diplomatic relations as well as to promote tourism between both countries.
Korean cultural dances were performed by the Korea House performers while a series of break dances by the group of 10 internationally well-known B-Boys.
Amongst the cultural dances performed last evening were the "Sinawi""Buchaechum"(the famous Korean fan dance),"saipuri","Bukchum"(a drum beating dance which I truly enjoyed)and lots more during the 2 hour concert.Proceeds from the 2-days concert were donated to the Kiwanis Down Syndrome Foundation of Kota Kinabalu and HOSPIS, Sandakan.
I managed to take some shots of the dances and have off-loaded them here for those who missed this great show and dance panorama.As flash was not allowed by those taking photographs, I have to resort to taking them at high resolution.
