2018 Jeonju International Sori Festival - Double Stage & World Music Workshop
CPI members were officially invited by the 2018 Asia Sori Project to join Double Stage performances and World Music Workshop at Jeonju International Sori Festival from October 3rd to October 7th, 2018.
During the festival, the venues of workshop were changed in an urgent manner and participants had to think about cancelling Double Stage due to Typhoon Kong-Rey. However, both performers and audiences stayed together to support the performances and as a result, the programs ended successfully. These programs staged during the festival will be staged again in Seoul and Busan in November this year.
