The Korean Cultural Center Washington, D.C. (KCCDC) is pleased to partner with the Trump-Kennedy Center to present fusion ensemble Korean Fever on February 19 for Legacy of Light: Korea!, a dynamic music, dance, and DJ showcase celebrating the Lunar New Year on the Millennium Stage.

Korean Fever, a diverse ensemble of world music artists led by gayageum zither master Rami Seo, fuses traditional Korean music with contemporary creative compositions, offering a distinctly immersive cultural experience. Legacy of Light: Korea! weaves together K-Classic, K-Pop, K-Jazz, and Korean traditional performing arts with global styles, transforming five millennia of Korean cultural heritage into a powerful artistic narrative of resilience, hope, and emotional depth.

This event also marks the Lunar New Year, an important traditional holiday of communion celebrated in Korea and elsewhere in 2026 officially on February 17. For their debut at this prestigious venue, Korean Fever will showcase the uniqueness of creative Korean music in a 60-minute performance that blends traditional Korean and Western instruments with live K-Pop inspired dance and DJ sets. 

The ensemble features Rami Seo (gayageum, Korean Fever founder), guitarist Ho-Kyung Choi, contrabassist Jeong-Hwan Park, drummer Peter Manheim, vocalists Rina Kim and Eun-Ki Park, DJ Larry Jung, K-pop dance group ALLNIGHTERS (Clara Kim, Seunga Park, Evgeniya Yanzhuraeva), and media artist Sunghyun Jang.
