국악공연장의 공연공간적 특성과 실태에 관한 연구

Abstract

This study intends to lay the foundation for reviewing and discussing
 appropriate type of performance hall through a survey on the current status
 of gugak (Korean traditional music) performance halls. Furthermore, it aims to
 promote the development of gugak performances by establishing a
 performance environment where gugak performances can be enjoyed close to
 their original form. It analyzes the form of five gugak centers--National Gugak
 Center, National Folk Gugak Center, National Namdo Gugak Center, Busan
 National Gugak Center, and Seoul Donhwamun Gugak Center--which are
 currently operating as major gugak venues.
 The results of this study are as follows. First, most of the existing stages of
 gugak performance halls are in the form of prosinium. The reason is that it is
 generally the most commonly used form in concert halls, and it can be
 assumed that it was influenced by the form of Western concert halls. Second,
 based on the two-dimensional shape in which chairs are arranged, the most
 common types of seats in the gugak performance halls are horseshoe-shaped
 and shoebox-shaped. The reason why these appear most frequently is
 because, firstly, they are the most commonly used forms among performance
 halls, and secondly, it is presumed that they are the most effective forms
 when conveying the voice of the performer or considering acoustic
 characteristics. Third, unlike the Western stage, the contact and distance
 between the performer and the audience is very important for audience
 participation in gugak performance. In most types, it should be considered
 that the relationship between the viewer and the player is dynamically and
 three-dimensionally combined, rather than distinguishing between them. Fourth, the size of the stage and audience, the two-dimensional viewing
 angle, and the viewing distance vary depending on the type of performance.
 Therefore, it is necessary to specify the type of performance according to the
 performance hall or to suggest a performance hall that can be used variably.
 Fifth, considering the tendency of the latest performances, such many
 performances as instrumental music and pansori have been performed in
 small-scale performance halls. It can be inferred why the recently opened
 gugak concert halls such as Pungnyu Sarangbang and Donhawmun Gugakdang
 Hall are in small-scale. Sixth, there are three types of outdoor gugak
 performance halls: a circular shape like the Moonlight Yard of the Namdo
 Gugak Center, a long rectangular shape like the Starlight Yard of the Namdo
 Gugak Center, and a semicircular shape like the outdoor yard of the Busan
 Gugak Center.
