It comprised the choreography of 37 Chinese and Korean dances in the form of manuscript.

[citation needed] Jeongjaemu is divided into native dances (향악정재, hyangak jeongjae) and forms imported from Central Asia and China (당악정재, dangak jeongjae). Ilmu are divided into civil dance (문무, munmu) and military dance (무무, mumu). Many mask dramas and mask dances are performed in many regional areas of Korea. [18]
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.
