The she will draw from her research and demonstrate how these traditions are being adapted and kept alive for current audiences in a variety of genres such as K-pop as well as various hybrid genres that have developed such as post-gugak (post-Korean traditional music) and ch'angjak yonhui (creative Korean performing arts).
