From 1950 to 1953, dancing space in Busan area has brought a big change as a form that existing spaces lost their function or new spaces appeared. This study looked into dancing area in Busan area at the time of the Korean War. Therefore, we were able to understand what meaning Busan area's dancing space has as a Korean dancer. For study method, we based the literature research, but utilized the insufficient data from direct face-to-face talk with artists who are alive until now. At the time of the Korean War, dancing spaces appeared in Busan area were Gwonbeon and theater, multi-purpose space, school auditorium, and art group in military and school. Maintaining Gwonbeon at the time of the Korean War became hard because of economic difficulty, so Gisaeng who feared for their life danced at restaurants. Also, because there was no proper place for performance, dancers who worked in Busan played performance in multi-purpose space. There was a performance in normal theaters, too. And, there was dancing space where art group in the military worked in the army. We can say that art group in the military's dancing space got much social influence as it was newly appeared as dancing space around this period. Lastly, school was where the flow of Korean traditional dance was able to be continued in the situation that dance's inheritance became difficult. Therefore, this study's researcher could organize the meaning that dancing space in Busan has as a Korean dancer. First, it was the inheritance space of predecessors who put effort to keep Korean traditional dance in the case of tough situation which is the Korean War. Second, it is a space of maintaining life to overcome economical difficulty because of war. Third, it is enjoyment space for the whole country's refugees who came to Busan. Many artists took refuge to Busan during the Korean War, so dance in Busan was able to develop more. Therefore, dancing area in Busan during war had bigger meaning as Korean artists than other area.
