영남 탈춤에 나타난 덧배기춤의 배김새 분석

Abstract

There is a saying in Korea that goes, “Yeongnam is dance, and Honam is sound.” In this saying, Yeongnam’s dance refers to a type of dance called deosbaegi , which is a folk dance that anyone from the Yeongnam region can perform. Deosbaegi was naturally passed down through the daily lives of Yeongnam people and was a folk dance of Yeongnam’s folk culture. However, with changes in the living environment, the natural transmission of deosbaegi has been disconnected, and now it is no longer a dance that anyone can perform. exists only in certain dances, such as the Ogwangdae and Yaryu dances, which are types of mask dances, and the Dongraehak dance. This paper aims to clarify the existence of autonomy, individuality, and unstructured movements in deosbaegi, which was once a dance that anyone could perform. To achieve this goal, the researchers focused on the movements of current deosbaegi and analyzed the movements of mask dances performed in the Yeongnam region. This is because mask dances in Yeongnam are based on deosbaegi, and the dance movements of mask dances in Yeongnam are the same as those of deosbaegi. However, deosbaegi dances can be divided into unstructured and structured movements, and the current transmitted dance is the structured movement. The researchers compared the dance movements of Ogwangdae and Yaryu in the Yeongnam region based on the transmitted structured movements. They divided the movements into preparation, execution, and completion stages and further categorized the execution stage into different levels of movements, such as bending, stretching, and twisting, to analyze the movements. As a result, the researchers found that he primary movement of deosbaegi, which involves forcefully stamping the ground, differs in each region, indicating regional differences rather than differences between Ogwangdae and Yaryu. Such regional differences in mask dances reveal the identity of Yeongnam’s mask dances.
