Cultural Events Lined Up for Spring Break


Seoul City has prepared a variety of cultural performances for young people to enjoy during their spring break.

One of the highlights is the Seoul Philharmonic Orchestra's Masterpiece Series concert taking place Thursday at the Seoul Arts Center Concert Hall.

Korea's leading orchestra will perform Jean Sibelius' symphonic poem "Pohjola's Daughter," and Sergei Prokofiev's "Romeo and Juliet." The performance will be led by Maestro Jukka-Pekka Saraste.
Those looking for a lighter performance may want to check out the "Farting Lady" on show at the Seoul Namsan Traditional Theater until Sunday. The performance features a mix of traditional Korean dance and games, as well as mime, puppet shows and other theatrical effects.

For an historical adventure, parents and children can visit an exhibition about King Sejong and Admiral Yi Sun-shin at Gwanghwamun from Tuesday to Sunday from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m.

The Cheonggyecheon Museum is holding an exhibition entitled "The Moment of Living Heritage," featuring 53 photographs of items recognized as intangible cultural assets.
