How ballet is keeping a hero's legacy alive

창작발레와 만난 안중근, 무용으로 들여다보는 독립영웅의 삶, '안중근, 천국에서의 춤' On the cultural front. An independence fighter's dedication to ensuring Korea's freedom from Japanese colonial rule is brought to light on stage through the art of dance. Our correspondent Song Yoo-jin shows us how. Jumps, turns, and twirls. Sometimes, movement speaks louder than words. The Korean ballet 'Ahn Jung-geun, A Dance in Heaven' marks its 10th anniversary this year. Ahn is best remembered for pulling the trigger that changed history -assassinating Japan's first Resident-General of Korea, Hirobumi Ito. Ito is known to have orchestrated the 1905 Eulsa Treaty, stripping Korea of its diplomatic sovereignty. Director and scriptwriter Yang Young-eun says Ahn's final words before his execution became the heartbeat of this production. "His words: When I hear the sound of Korea’s independence ringing from heaven, I will dance with joy.' I realized he must have danced in moments of happiness. That’s when I thought, why not tell his story through ballet, one of the purest forms of art?" The ballet traces Ahn's life from his marriage to his beloved wife Kim Ah-ryeo at 15 to his final moments at 31. Ballerinos Yoon Jeon-il and Lee Dong-tak play Ahn, which they call an "incredible honor." "I've read books, watched documentaries, and studied historical records, but I tried to embody his sacrifices and convictions. I kept asking myself, 'Why did he make those choices? What must it have felt like to give up everything for a greater cause?'" "I wanted to ensure that Ahn's story in our production flowed seamlessly from the battles he fought, the sorrow of losing his fellow soldiers, his resilience, and how he ultimately carried out his mission." Ahn's love, agony, and unwavering determination are expressed entirely through motion. This is where the ballet took a bold turn, breaking tradition with creative choices, most notably, a rare male corps de ballet sequence. "Typically, ballet prioritizes symmetry and uniformity, but we pushed beyond convention -more balance shifts, expressive upper-body movements, and dynamic movements. And our choreographer's pas de deux beautifully conveys 'han,' Korea's deep sorrow and resilience." A story once confined to history books now lives on through dance, each step a heartbeat, each leap a cry for freedom.
