This paper explores how images of North Korea are represented in Eun-Me Ahn’s Eun-Me Ahn’s North Korean Dance (2018) and Bae-Sub Keum’s Island (2018). This study analyzes material, theme, choreo graphic intention and processes, and aspects of dancers, movements, the visual and aural setting in the two works. This paper argues that dance works tend to represent images of North Korea in symbolic, abstract ways while works in the field of cinema, theater, and musical directly in volve issues related to North Korea and criticize their problems.
