『악학궤범』<봉래의> 여민락 무의 이동구조 탐색

Abstract

According to Akhakguebeom(樂學軌範), Useonhwaemu(右旋回舞) is a part of the dance for Yeominlak(與民樂) of “Bonglaeeui(鳳來儀)”. It is performed from Jeokinjang(狄人章) through Yainjang(野人章), Cheonsejang(天世章) and Jajajang(子子章) finally to Ohojang(嗚呼章) where the dancers stand in the Sabang(四方) formation. Useonhwaemu is performed in the Changsa(唱詞) formation except for the part from Jeokinjang to around the end of Ohojang. Useonhwaemu begins when the Jwau(左右) formation changes to the Sabang formation. Though Akhakguebeom illustrates both formations and suggests the direction of Hwaemu(回舞), it doesn't specify the scale and way of movements. Therefore, there are confusions when it's performed today. For example, Useonhwaemu is replaced by Jwaseonhwaemu for Yeominlak dance, turning around three times. Also, there is not any agreement on the procedure and process of movements. This study examines the structure of Useonhwaemu of “Bonglaeeui”, the dance accompanying Yeominlak music of Sejongsillokakbo in the early Joseon, referring to Akhakguebeom, in terms of performance. The main findings are as follows. First, the illustration of the initial arrangement of “Bonglaeeui” in Akhakguebeom marks the moving order of each dancer by giving numbers to dancers on the left and the right like Dancer 1, Dancer 2, and so on. Secondly, Useonhwaemu for Yeominlak dance of “Bonglaeeui” is made only once to the west. It is partly because it is not mentioned at all in Bonglaeeui how many times the dancers should turn around whereas it's specified in Holgi. Besides, the dancers can turn around once because they have to move treading on each arranged position on either side of left or right. Thirdly, Useonhwaemu for Yeominlak dance of “Bonglaeeui” is a circle dance where the whole dance goes along in circle in a line. The way the dance moves is that the dancers from the left and right go out turn by turn, form a line and finally turn in a circle, like left dancers 1-2-3-4 and right dancers 4-3-2-1. Sejongsilokakbo and Akhakgubeom are the literature that compiled the court performance art of the early Joseon. They had been a guide for the performance art of Joseon for over 5 centuries. They compiled the dance and music of the early Joseon with the illustrations not merely for academic purpose but for practical one. In order to establish the theoretical foundation for the practice of Jeongjae, they need to be studied from different angles. The problem is how to interpret the ancient literature because its interpretation might be different from person to person according to the different standard applied to it. Therefore, it's important for those who study them to make public and put on record the perspectives and methods they take for the research. Only then will it be possible to build the foundation to restore and reproduce the dance culture of the Joseon Court.
