Gainjeonmokdan (Korean pronunciation: [ka.in dʑʌmoktan]) is a Korean court dance (called jeongjae 정재 in Korean), and literally means "beautiful people plucking peonies". This jeongjae was initiated and arranged by Hyomyeong Seja (Crown Prince Hyomyeong) in 1829 to please his father, King Sunjo.
The manual of 1828 did not contain dance choreography. [3] Both 1829 and 1848's Uigwes also provided same information. The first book that contained the dance choreography was Manual of Court Dance ("Jeongjae Mudo Holgi") of 1893. It comprised the choreography of 37 Chinese and Korean dances in the form of manuscript.
It is often accompanied by traditional folk dances of Korea, known as hyangak jeongjae. These dances are performed in front of audiences—as opposed to the square dance more familiar to Westerners, which is primarily for the participants' enjoyment. One important hyangak piece is Yeomillak (hangul: 여민락; hanja: 與 民 樂).
Dangak performances were accompanied by Tang-style dances known as dangak jeongjae. Together with hyangak, during the Joseon Dynasty dangak performances were the charge of the Jeonakseo (hangul: 전악서; hanja: 典 樂 署; 1394–1457) and later of the Jangagwon (hangul: 장악원; hanja: 掌 樂 院), the court office of music.
