GUMI, South Korea—Korean audiences praised Shen Yun Performing Arts for bringing hope and happiness to people, and on Feb. 8 some said the performance was so amazing there was nothing else like it on earth.

“Shen Yun presents humanity’s deepest emotions by using the arts,” said Ms. Kim Na-young, the chairwoman of the Korea Traditional Dance Association Andong City Branch and the president of the Ahree Art Company.

Ms. Kim said Shen Yun has many dances that deliver rich content and culture. She was touched by Shen Yun’s high quality.

“All the male dancers and female dancers are outstanding. They must have received long-term hard training. Their skills are well-trained. We, theatergoers, can feel they dance with an extremely honest heart,” she said. “As an artist, I resonated with Shen Yun artists’ sincerity and enthusiasm. I’m very happy to attend this performance.”

“I admire the artistic director. He must have a formidable ability,” she said.

“This is a 100 percent perfect performance. I feel Shen Yun is amazing,” she said. “This large-scale show is hard to perform. But so many artists coordinate with each other perfectly!”

Ms. Lee paid a lot of attention to the Shen Yun dancers.

“Their bodies’ expressive skills are extraordinary. They all have superb techniques. Their physical foundations are so great. I was deeply awed,” she said.

Ms. Lee said that, for a dancing ensemble, it’s hard to get dancers synchronized, but Shen Yun pulled it off flawlessly.

“I was very impressed that all Shen Yun dancers looked of similar build. When they move, no matter using their legs, arms, or bodies, they all synchronized accurately,” she said. “I could feel they must have put tons of effort to make this happen.”

Ms. Lee praised the live orchestra’s musicians.

“The live orchestra’s playing exactly matched the dances. All beats matched,” she said. “I don’t think this is just because of the dancers. It really needs the musicians to work very hard to coordinate with the dancers.”

Ms. Lee talked a lot about the beauty of Shen Yun’s costumes and backdrop which brought her to different ancient Chinese dynasties, and she also appreciated Shen Yun’s brightness.

“There were scenes in Shen Yun where divine beings came down from heaven. They are very, very touching. My heart thumped, thumped, thumped when I saw these,” she said. “It’s so beautiful. Actually, some of the dances are similar to our Korean dance. Shen Yun dancers danced excellently. It’s great.”

“The last dance told us that human beings should live by following the moral codes,” she said. “[I agree], we humans must live according to human morality.”

Shen Yun Performing Arts World Company has finished all two performances in Gumi. Next week, it will perform in Seoul, the capital city.
