AB - Korean Jeongjae(呈才) is largely divided into Dangak(唐樂) and Hyangak(鄕樂). Bugaku(舞樂) of Japan consists of Togaku (唐樂) and Komagaku(高麗樂). What is interesting is that the Korean and Japanese court dance commonly include things that came from China.
Besides, there are some traces of the latent faith in both Dangak and Togaku. The latent faiths which can be found in Dangak and Togaku are the worship of grains, faith in dragon god and Buddhism, etc. First, there are Oyangseon(五羊仙) of Dangak and Somakusha(蘇莫者) of Togaku, which are based on the worship of grains. Second, with having the belief in the dragon god, there are Pogurak(抛毬樂) of Dangak, and Seigaiha(靑海波) and Ama(安摩) of Togaku. Buddhism can be found in Yeonhwadae(蓮花臺) of Dangak and Manjuraku(萬秋楽), Karyoubin(迦陵頻) of Togaku.
Dangak Jeongjae revealed the latent faiths with lyrics, dancing tools, and the titles of songs, and Togaku was expressed with costumes and nicknames. Court Dance is considered as the greatest art of the time and extremely refined art. However, behind the scenes lies the latent religious system based on human primitive lives and emotions. This study will be helpful in understanding the dance of the royal court of Korea and Japan.
