European Premiere | 16:30
Mudam presents the European premiere of I Do Nine-Tailed Fox, a new work by Seoul-based artist Sojung Jun (b. 1982, Busan). Weaving together live music with archival footage and newly produced film material, the performance revisits the history of the Koryo theatre in Almaty, Kazakhstan. Founded in Vladivostok in 1932 by the Koryo-saram, the cultural institute relocated with the ethnic community when it was forcibly displaced from the Soviet Union’s Far East to Central Asia in 1937. The theatre remains active today as a living archive of survival and transformation. Jun parallels this history with the myth of the shapeshifting East Asian gumiho, or nine-tailed fox.
