Mask Dance 탈춤

Mask Dance is the next routine most students learn after puppet dance. It is performed by ages 6-10. It is a comedical dance that amuses the audience by playing two characters at once. The term "알쏭달쏭" (alssong-dalssong) means "to be confused" as shown during the performance. Performers play both boy and girl, showing girl in the front and boy on the back. I did this dance the most out of all of the dances I have learned. I did this for a very long time before I moved up to a more advanced class. This was because I wasn't tall enough for the more advanced dances but I was also not old enough. I also had a lot of center opportunities for this dance. The dance took a lot of energy because it had a lot of jumps and turns throughout the dance and did make me really dizzy and exhausted. But I really enjoyed it because it made the audience laugh and it was a very exciting dance to perform.
