Korea is a place of many exciting and unique tastes, and not just the ones you can experience at our Bellevue Korean restaurant. One of the country’s more fascinating cultural art forms is that of jultagi, the traditional performance art of Korean tightrope walking.

Though you may have experienced conventional tightrope walking before, Korea takes the art to an entirely new level. Many tourists are fascinated every year by the distinctive form of entertainment that jultagi represents. This is because a Korean tightrope walker is simultaneously an acrobat, a musician, and a storyteller. During a jultagi performance, the walker will often engage the audience with witty satire and narratives while accompanied by drummers and pipers. Should you ever make your way to South Korea, don’t leave without catching a show!
