About This Album

AHRHEE ART COMPANY [Hahwe] ◯ What about "Hahwe" in the album? The album 'Hahwe Mask' is the background music of the dance drama 'Hahwe-Mysterious Mask Story', which premiered in 2023 in hopes of being listed as a 'UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity'. The title "Hahwe" means that people's consciousness gradually wakes up and flows toward the completion of their lives through various processes of life like water. The title of the dance drama "Hahwe - A Tale of a Divine Mask" is as if the water is flowing ◯ the story of 'Hahwe' Once upon a time, there was a young man named Heo Do-ryeong in Hahwe Village. In his dream, Heo received a revelation of mask production from the guardian deity of the village. The next day, Heo Do-ryeong took a bath and set a golden cord to prevent foreigners from entering the house, and devoted himself to the production of masks with all his heart. At that time, there was a girl who desperately cared for Heo. The girl waited for many days, but she could not see Heo. A day before the promised 100th day of this taboo, the girl, who was curious about what Heo was do-ing, drilled a hole in the window to see what he was doing. He violated the forbidden rules. While he was performing his work with the will, Heo threw up blood and died on the spot. So the last 'imae mask' was left without a jaw. After that, the girl was also struggling and finally died. It is said that the villagers have been performing Byeolsingut every 10 years, accompanied by the de-ceased as a holy god to comfort the spirit of the virgin. ◯ The content of "Hahwe" music There are messages that are not visible throughout the work. However, various age groups have a device capable of enjoying various ages.It is possible to enjoy the audience with fun and interest and psychological elements can be able to enjoy the audience's hearts of the audience. It begins with several creative premises in a new interpretation of the existing folktales. 13 masks must be made in order to defeat the disaster of the village, and the 13 masks must be spiritual masks rather than ordinary masks, and they must be made after actually living the life of a mask to have spiritual power. A fantasy technique that travels through a multidimensional passage of time and space comes in. In addition to this, the emergence of a dark god to make the villagers his servant, the composition of confrontation between the existence of light, and the composition of the dark god to make the mask his own, and Heo's devotion to love to complete the mask while being willing to endure any pain without succumbing to the pressure and conciliation of the dark god. A gentle and heart-felt coalition that eventually broke down due to the love affair and un-bearable longing for Heo. And the urgent situation created by the villagers' anger to drive them to death by passing all the blame and responsibility for the failure to make a spiritual mask on Kim maiden has the attraction of tension that the original narrative does not have. A twist that could not have been imagined awaits at the end. For the first time in Korea, it is an attempt to include the cosmic theme that crosses the world of time and space, life and death, love and hate, brightness and darkness in the production process of 13 Hahwe masks, but it will be a fresh attempt to deeply resonate with all ages through the process of effectively mixing and colliding plays, dances, songs, and videos. ◯ Korean Creative - Traditional Dance Drama Music If a musical is a drama centered on music, dance drama music is a dramatic music centered on the Korean traditional creative dance with beautiful, elegant, and excellent techniques, and it is a more interesting and diverse expression by introducing lines and songs on top of a dense and dense dramatic composition [Credit] Produced by Mi-Ok Kim All Music Composed by Gyo-Min Lim *Performed by KOREART Traditional Ensemble * Piri : Keung-Hun Ku * Haegeum : Ju-Hyun Park * Gayageum : Wha-Jeong Kang * Ajaeng : Seung-Hun Nam * Daegeum, Sogeum : Beung-Ha Kang * Gukak Percussion : Han-Min Jo * Pan Sori : Eung-Min Kang * Dialogue : Whan-Yong Ahn * Song : Yu-Ra Jeong, Ji-Hun Park * Piano & Midi : Gyo-Min Lim Recorded by Jin-Tae Kim Mixed by Jong-Youl Whang Mastered by Han-Sang Kim Calligraphy by KOREART Illustrated by Kyeong-Suk Shin Designed by KOREART ENT Contents provider by Gun-Yeol Heo Company by KOREART ENT ⓟ&ⓒ 2024 KOREART ENT All Tracks are published by KOREART ENT www.ikoreart.com
