Belgium – Republic of Korea / 2024 creation
While cooking in a Korean street food stall, Jaha Koo blends personal stories about living between cultures, comfort food, and the pain of assimilation.
A practitioner of hybrid performances blending text, music, video, and robotics, director, composer and video artist Jaha Koo invites the audience to the counter of a pojangmacha (포장마차), one of those small street stalls typical of Seoul. Open until late at night, it becomes the refuge of a gallery of colourful characters—eel, snail, gummy bar—each with their own stories, by turns touching and absurd. The flavour of a seaweed soup, the sharp sound of a knife slicing an onion, or the crackling of mushrooms simmering over high heat… In this snack bar, South Korean cuisine becomes the starting point for a great journey and a broad reflection on the paradoxes of cultural assimilation.
포장마차에서 한국의 길거리 음식을 요리하며, 구자하는 여러 문화권 사이에서 살아온 개인적인 이야기와 위안을 주는 음식 그리고 동화(同化)의 아픔을 하나로 버무려낸다.

Korea Arts Management Service(KAMS) works to connect Korean artists and their creations with stages and audiences across the world, supporting the international circulation and global presence of Korean performing arts.
For its 80th edition, the Festival d’Avignon welcomes Korean as its guest language. Through performances, literature, and a constellation of artistic encounters, this programme offers an opportunity to share with audiences the vitality, imagination, and cultural depth of contemporary Korean arts.
This invitation has grown out of the longstanding exchange and collaboration between the Seoul Performing Arts Festival(SPAF), an annually held festival organized by KAMS, and the Festival d’Avignon. KAMS is proud and delighted to join this initiative as a main partner, introducing outstanding works representing Korea to Avignon after 28 years. On this occasion, the SPAF will continue to strengthen its collaboration with the Festival d'Avignon.
We hope that the openness, resilience, and artistic imagination carried by the Korean language will resonate with audiences around the world, creating new echoes and connections. May this collaboration open new paths for artistic encounters and dialogue between Korea and the international performing arts community.
The Korean Cultural Centre is a public institution under the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism of the Republic of Korea. Located in Paris, its mission is to promote the richness and diversity of Korean culture and to strengthen cultural exchanges between Korea and France. Through a multidisciplinary programme (exhibitions, films, concerts, conferences, performances, workshops, etc.), the Centre showcases both traditional Korean heritage and contemporary creativity. The Centre also develops outreach programmes, in collaboration with numerous cultural venues and local associations, to make Korean culture accessible to audiences throughout France. Furthermore, it supports Korean artists in promoting their work in France and facilitates encounters between professionals, cultural institutions and the French public. As a place for exchange and discovery, the Korean Cultural Centre thus contributes to cultural dialogue between the two countries and to a better understanding of Korean culture in all its forms.
