국립민속국악원, 어린이들이 완성한 창극 무대 선보여

The National Gugak Center held a graduation presentation at 3 p.m. on the 22nd at the Jirisan Theater in Namwon City, marking the conclusion of the summer vacation youth traditional music course, "Tintin Changgeuk Classroom."

The "Tintin Changgeuk Classroom" was an experiential traditional music education program where elementary school students learned Pansori (traditional Korean narrative song) and Changgeuk (Korean traditional opera) and performed on stage. The program ran from August 5th (Wednesday) to the 22nd (Saturday).

During the graduation presentation, the students showcased a fusion of the main scenes from Pansori classics such as Chunhyangga, Heungboga, Sugungga, and Simcheongga into a single Changgeuk performance. Throughout the educational process, the participating students learned vocalization, breathing techniques, rhythm, and gradually progressed to learning sound, lines, role-specific scenes, and stage movements according to their assigned roles, culminating in their experience of performing Changgeuk on stage.

In this program, seniors who majored in traditional music in high school after completing the "Tintin Changgeuk Classroom" participated as mentors, adding significance to the event. The senior mentors practiced sound and prepared the stage with their juniors, shared their experiences, and continued intergenerational learning and growth through traditional music.

An official from the National Gugak Center stated, "The 'Tintin Changgeuk Classroom' program receives a lot of attention each time it recruits participants," and expressed hope for "continued interest from children and parents as we plan to operate it during the winter vacation as well."
