Kim Sung Hoon Dance Project
The title Jodong means to move quickly and urgently. It depicts a serious contemplation on the 'emptiness' and 'futility' of life that modern people feel in their repetitive daily routine.
SynopsisLike cogs in a factory, we flow from day to day in size, shape, and speed. In the current society that moves hastily and dementedly, are we gradually changing into a different form?
