‘2021 Sound Healing with Korea — Art and Culture’ Videos to Go Online

“Sound Healing with Korea — Art and Culture,” a series of nonverbal videos bringing viewers behind the scenes of Korean arts and culture, will be released on the KF’s YouTube channel.

Following the first series, “Listen to Jeju,” released in September, this second series presents ASMR scenes recorded at the sites of Korean artistic and cultural activities.

The five themed episodes are vastly different from typical videos about Korean culture, which usually focus on performances and exhibitions, as they shed light on the behind-the-scenes production of various kinds of cultural content, demonstrating Korea’s technological prowess.

The videos will take viewers backstage at a concert of classical music performed by the KBS Philharmonic Orchestra; show B-boying dance groups practicing for the Bucheon Bboy International Championship (BBIC); capture a preliminary contest for the 2024 Paris Olympics, where breakdancing will debut as an Olympic sport; reveal how NCSoft produces video game sound effects; take a deep dive into SM Entertainment’s metaverse content; and highlight how Dexter Studios designed the visual effects (VFX) and direct input (DI) sound for the film Space Sweepers.

Viewers will be introduced to the dynamic Korean culture of today and the people who create, lead, and preserve it. Everyone is welcome to enjoy the sound healing project on the KF’s YouTube channel.
