What animal does the dance of Korean celebrities imitate, court dance or folk dance?

Totem worship of cranes is the earliest sacrificial content of primitive ancestors. In the later sacrificial activities, there appeared the action of imitating cranes, and then gradually formed the traditional dance image of the Korean nation. The dance of Korean people, whether it is court dance or folk dance, is a simulation of cranes. When doing movements, we also emphasize the coordination of breathing and movements. For example, when doing flexible crane steps, the dancer's inner breathing feeling and leg control are particularly emphasized; When lifting the leg, emphasize that the thigh drives the knee, the calf naturally relaxes, and the foot makes a leisurely pace; Every movement and style of trunk and limbs is closely coordinated with breathing. Only in this way can we show the dynamic rhythm and style of Korean dance.
