When letters do not guarantee understanding
Jeonju's official cultural calendar lists Hunminjeongeum Consonant Zone (*Hunminjeongeum Jaeumbyeol Guyeok*) for Wednesday, November 11, 2026, at 7:30 p.m. at Jeonju Deokjin Arts Hall. Admission is KRW 10,000; inquiries 1522-6278.
A historical setting for a contemporary question
Set during King Jeongjo's Joseon era, the story follows Ieon and Garam, who seek to record the people's words, and the powerful groups opposing them. The production uses dialogue across class and generational divisions to examine communication today. Traditional instruments such as daegeum and taepyeongso join Western instruments, while projected letters respond to musical rhythms.
