Notable performers include Namchangdong, a master tightrope walker recognized as a UNESCO intangible cultural heritage bearer, who will showcase his breathtaking skills, while singer Kim Soo-in will express the courage of the flower knights through pansori (traditional Korean narrative singing) and gayageum (a traditional Korean string instrument) performance. Audiences will also be treated to a new interpretation of the legendary song Changgiparangga. The dance group K-Tigers will present a combination of dance and taekwondo demonstrations, featuring choreography by Ha Seong-jin, associated with the animation K-Pop Demon Hunters and its boy group Lion Boys.
A royal court music and dance event is also set to captivate visitors from around the world.
