“까치걸음” (Magpie Steps “Kkachi georeum) is a walking technique in poongmul!
It resembles how a magpie walks, as a two-step movement where the body twists slightly to the left and right while walking. The short steps look like bouncy skipping!
The bouncy nature of the steps adds energy and excitement to the performance.
I’m wondering if this is what we do in Samchae 👀
