ksa culture show 2009: project 4

Project 4

The 28th annual KSA Culture Show’s theme is Project 4, which aspires to express different facets of Korean culture and how it ties to the simplicity of the number 4. Our 2009 Culture Show theme will emphasize the importance of the symbolism found in this particular number in Korean culture by uniting the four elements, four seasons, four trigrams, and four colors of the national flag. By fusing these basic elements together and weaving them through our set design, fashion show and cultural acts, KSA hopes to present a new perspective on our roots.

This year’s fashion show will go back to its Korean roots and redefine the four elements of the hanbok, a traditional Korean dress. With fire, earth, wind, and water and symbolized and integrated in the four scenes, the KSA Fashion Show will exemplify the beauty and intransience of Korean culture.
