본문내용

One of the arts that it has been existed with human being is the dancing. The dancing has been continued for a long time and regarded as means for communicating among people and expressing their minds and ideas. So, if you want to understand some kinds of arts or cultures, you have to try to know about its history. Before we talk about the Ballet, we need to its meaning and etymology. According to Chantrell,

The etymology of the word ballet is related to the art form`s history. The word ballet comes from the French and was borrowed into English around the 17th century. The French word in turn has its origins in Italian balletto, a diminutive of ballo (dance). Ballet ultimately traces back to Latin ballare, meaning to dance.

Although the ballet has been continued and developed in the world for a long time since it emerged, the history of Korean ballet is not long than we expected. Its history is only about a half of century if we define that the beginning of Korean ballet history is the emergence of Korean ballerinas. Specifically, in 1910s, Ballet was simply introduced by a Russian girl, and two Korean persons, Jisoo Jung and Dongin Han who studied ballet in Japan started to spread the ballet in 1940s.
