BUSAN, South Korea—A Korean educator said “Shen Yun is a something created by the divine,” and “no words can describe how touched I am by Shen Yun.”
Mr. Seo Chang-Seok, the president of the Education Center at the Allak College of Chungnyeolsa, attended Shen Yun Performing Arts at the Sohyang Theatre in Busan on Feb. 2.
“This is an amazing performance. It’s majestic!” he said. “The scenes on stage convey the teachings from the divine beings. They are enormous and grand.”
He said the dancers coordinated with each other so precisely, as if they were “one person’s movements. This level is extremely difficult to reach.”
“This show is not something you'd typically see. You can’t imagine how great it is. It’s like heavenly maidens are dancing for us. It’s outstanding,” he said.
“That human beings can make this kind of dynamic backdrop—what an awesome creation!” he said.
“I was very touched by these three words. We all should recite these three words. We should remember them in our hearts,” he said.
‘The Best Art in the World’
Mr. Doh Yong-bok is the president of SARATOGA, co-chairman of the Korean Chorus Organizing Committee, and the president of the Busan City Culture Award Winners Association. He praised Shen Yun as “the best art in the world.”“Everything is excellent in Shen Yun. All of it is magnificent. The dances are incomparable. They perfectly present the sacred and the beautiful. They are models of the highest artistry,” he said. “I can’t imagine how hard training needs to be to make this fabulous performance.”
Mr. Doh agreed that traditional values and culture are very important to a country and a nation.
“We wouldn’t have today’s society if we don’t have traditions. Only by cherishing and embracing the culture we will have a bright future,” he said.
“Truthfulness, compassion, and tolerance are the foundation for us human beings. Everybody should attend Shen Yun,” he said. “I learned from Shen Yun that we can solve all the issues if we follow these principles and work hard to solve difficulties.”
The name “Shen Yun” means the “beauty of divine beings dancing.” Shen Yun delivers through music and dance the virtues from 5,000 years of Chinese civilization—like loyalty, propriety, wisdom, justice, and benevolence—values that are universal and shared the world over.
Mr. Kim Woo-ki is the chair of Gimhae Model Taxi Drivers Association. He said he liked Shen Yun very much and would introduce Shen Yun to all his friends.
“The dances are so vividly beautiful. They are fantastic. The live orchestra’s playing coordinates with the dances so harmoniously. I was mesmerized by them,” he said.
“They are incredibly beautiful. It’s really classic,” he said.
