The Jongmyo Daeje Ceremony, Seoul

Ilmu Munmu dance

The dance performed in Jongmyo Jerye is called Ilmu, consisting of two parts; the first part, Botaepyeong-ji-mu or Munmu, is performed with the music of Botaepyeong (Preservation of Great Peace), a dance to praise the civil achievements of former kings, with dancers holding a Yak (a three-holed bamboo flute) in the left hand and a Jeok (a pheasant-feather tasseled wooden bar) in the right hand. The music was created during the reign of King Sejong (1418–1450).
