Time passes, and once new creations vanish into the realm of history. However, ‘mankind' has been in the center of the creation and the extinction of all things. Current civilization devotes itself into STEAM education and foster autonomous, proactive individual for preservation of humanity and betterment of the society. Confucian moral cultivation coincides with modern educational trend in regard that its goal is perfection of personality and establishment of moral community by disciplining one's body and mind. Munmyo-ilmu is a Confucian ritual dance presenting manners and rights to be shared among people which has been a means to educate liberal arts and train body and soul for ages. As said in a Confucius saying: "Arts produce a kind of pleasure which human nature cannot do without.", the dance is a guide for developing self-taught, global talents. From cultivating human nature and building creativity to enhancing communication, collaboration, and leadership skills, qualities more emphasized nowadays, Munmyo-ilmu suggests deep implications to present education of arts. Munmyo-ilmu education will provide its trainees the opportunity to grow into trust-worthy, influencial leaders with increased creativeness and highly effiecient communication and collboration skills based on enhanced solitude by learning the ethics of Confusian and building chacacters on it. Nourishing cultural citizens and making a better society is not different from now as in the old times. It is not only for personal or national interest, but for epigyny of human and nature. This study is presented such that it can be used to pave the groundwork for nurturing creative and cultural talents.
