It won the New York Dance and Performance Awards, also known as the Bessie Awards, which annually honor outstanding achievements by independent dance artists.
Choreographers Jung Hye-jin, Kim Seong-hun, and Kim Jae-deok, who collaborated on the modern adaptation of a ceremonial dance from Jongmyo Jeryeak, shared the honor with three other winners selected from 12 nominees.
The work was praised for its "visually captivating" choreography, striking a perfect balance of stillness and movement.
Jung said, "'One Dance' reflects the spirit of people who endured together with one heart toward a single goal," adding that the award was the result of the time and effort that many people devoted to the project.
