As part of the ARKO Creation Factory program, choreographer Kim Minkyoung presents “The Old Man Who Lends Romance,” a contemporary performance exploring emotion, memory, and human connection.
“The Old Man Who Lends Romance” is presented under the ARKO Creation Factory (Changjak Sansil) program, a platform dedicated to supporting original Korean performing arts productions. Created by Kim Minkyoung, the work suggests a poetic narrative that reflects on aging, longing, and the human desire to rediscover romance in everyday life.
Through a contemporary performance language—potentially blending movement, theatrical elements, and narrative symbolism—the production explores how emotions evolve over time. The metaphor of “lending romance” implies the sharing or rediscovery of warmth and affection across generations.
Staged over a three-day run, the performance highlights artistic experimentation and original storytelling within Korea’s contemporary performing arts landscape.
