Notes[edit]

  1. ^ Seoul Marginal Theater Festival or Seoul Edge Theater Festival or Seoul Frontier Theater Festival which started in 1999 as a 'show of the secrets of young directors', is a contemporary performing arts festival that seeks to capture the aesthetic originality and social context of the work from the perspective of 'the border'.[5]
  2. ^ Yeongeukjeon Co., Ltd. is a specialized corporation established in November 2007 for the systematic operation of Theatrical Jeoljeon based on the performance of Theatrical Yoljeon in 2004 to revitalize Korean theater. Every two years since 2008, The Theater of the Stars 2, new plays are performed with an annual lineup, and repertoire performances are performed in years other than this season. Theatrical Enthusiasm Co., Ltd. provides high-quality works to the audience through 'discovery of the repertoire of Korean plays', 'support for domestic creative works', 'development of verified overseas works', and 'active exchange with overseas productions' to provide the audience with the fun and charm of plays. I want to share with more people.
