Kim Baek-bong (Korean: 김백봉; February 12, 1927 – April 11, 2023), born Kim Choong-sil (김충실), was a South Korean choreographer and dancer widely considered a pioneer of neoclassical Korean dance. She is famously referred to as the "Root of Modern Korean Dance" and the leader of the "Renaissance of Korean traditional Dance" due to her role in modernizing ancient forms into the neoclassical style. She is most renowned for creating the Buchaechum (Fan Dance) and the Hwagwanmu (Floral Coronet Dance), which have become globally recognized symbols of Korean traditional culture.
