The aim of this study is to draw conceptual definition, grasp aspects of community dance in Korea, and suggest plans of development for sustainable it. For this study, several arguments about community dance is reviewed through literature, and analyzed practice cases of it by newspaper, on-line searching. Community dance is a way of mutual communication that participants express, understand their life through the arts. It is more concerned with the process than the result. because it lays stress on the process of identifying about individual or community. Besides the process-oriented, it emphasize experience to reveal creativity, opportunities for the masses to enjoy the arts, initiative of participation, understanding of others, work together with the regional community or institution. The aspects of community dance in Korea were considered in terms of three areas. It include revitalization and unifying of a community(aim at general people like older women, teenager, mother and daughter etc), treatment and revival of a person of deviation(aim at reformatory, homeless person), improvement of the rights of the social weaker, neglected(aim at the disabled, the aged, soldiers etc). Community dance helps learner to prepare basic ability as a social member. It is possible for them to build self-esteem, cultivate communication skill, develope critical judgement, creative thinking as well as health, fitness. Furthermore, it contributes to improve social cohesion through the restoration of relations. Through all of this, I suggest the plan of development of community dance as community art. First, when researchers plan a programme, they decide a place, man to educate. And then they should diagnose and grasp needs, problems to solve exactly. It is starting point of the project and has influence on progress direction, goal, activity, method of management. Second, though various dance is used in community dance, basically, it aim at activity to reveal personal creativity, promote spontaneity. The activity means not merely acquiring skill of dance, but wide understanding for it as a part of culture & art which is intimate in life. It can be build up a cooperative relationship with the other study like music, theater, visual art, literature, history etc. Third, in order to enhance understanding of learners about the region and explore connectivity between educational space and programme, a cooperative network for mutual assistance of the local arts organizations, creative space, members of organizations is formed. Fourth, community dance in korea spread with pluralistic aspects, but the support is towards for specific participants. It is necessary for it to expand new areas which reflect demand of another vulnerable groups. finally, a consistency of supports, a variety of funding is required. In order to run a sustainable community dance, different resources should be made as corporate and private sponsors as well as public funds through the central and local government.
