Il Kwa Nori (일과놀이)
Il Kwa Nori is a Korean American cultural troupe that performs as a percussion ensemble, incorporating elements of song and dance. Il Kwa Nori translates into "Work and Play", reflecting the traditionally integral role that culture played in the daily life of rural Korea.
Since its inception in 1988, Il Kwa Nori was formed with the intention of promoting Korean cultural traditions in the city of Chicago. Il Kwa Nori is housed within the Korean American Resource & Cultural Center and serves as a meaningful complement to the center's social justice work.
Il Kwa Nori coordinates the annual Jishin Balpgi Lunar New Year Street Festival in the city of Chicago and surrounding suburbs every year and other major cultural events and performances all year round. In 2006, the group was named one of "Great Performers of Illinois" and gave its solo performance at Millennium Park in October. |
