Gyeonghoeru Traditional Performance Reminder to Light Up the Autumn Night of Gyeongbokgung Palace

The Cultural Heritage Administration (Director Kim Chan) will stage the traditional performance "Gyeonghoeru Yeonhyang" at Gyeonghoeru Pavilion in Gyeongbokgung Palace on September 17 and October 15 with the Korea Cultural Heritage Protection Foundation (Chairman Lee Se-seop).

Gyeonghoeru Yeonhyang was designed to promote the value and utilization of Gyeonghoeru through the development of high-quality traditional cultural contents as part of the making of the four living palaces and Jongmyo Shrine.
