The intent of this study is to present the concept and the typing structure of folkdance based on review of related materials, to prepare for publication of the KoreanFolk Art Dictionary. In fact, it is not easy work to classify folk dance as theintangible cultural heritage in an academical manner. The concept of folk dance isdifferently presented in each material and folk dance is typed simply in terms offragmentary or unclear criteria. Nevertheless, I was able to discover common coreterminology reflected on researchers' views over folk dance and its key features byera, and dealt with the concept of folk dance based on such discovery. Namely, youcan say that folk dance means the art of basic culture, originated from instinctivebehavior and developed throughout history and geographical territory. Folk dancehad not been enjoyed only by a specific class. Anyone can be a enjoyer whosometimes turns out to be a performer. Folk dance has been inherited as "groupdance playing together" performed at all open places such as hills, fields andprairies as far as such places are related with seasonal customs or rituals. Andnowadays, folk dance itself serves as "solo dance for showing" which has evolvedinto professional entertainment togetherwith transition of time. Therefore, thecategory of the typing system is expanded into "solo dance for showing" of todayfrom "group dance playing together". Tying criteria is performer, enjoyer, purpose,function, space and music. The dance is largely classified into 'court dance' and'folk dance'. In middle scale classification, the dance is divided intonon-professional entertainment and professional entertainment, based on a styleand a core element. Again, non-professional entertainment can be subdivided intoa local event considering regionality and the dance in each chapter or by tool usedin a locakl event. Professional entertainment is subdivided into the dance based on its line such as geisha culture, acrobatic tumbler culture, court dance culture orshamanism culture by figuring out interchange of dance among a court, the folkand a geisha academy in the late Chosun. I hope this essay could serve as the solidfoundation in defining titles for folk dance and exemplary methodology forpublishing a dictionary.
