요약정보

Noridan is a pioneering social enterprise in art and culture.
As the Korean word "nori"‚ meaning "play"‚ suggests‚ this company envisions bringing change to the world through their fun performances.
Noridan performers are known as eco musicians because they make their instruments with junk items like used plastic bottles and pipes and turn them into objects that can create great sounds.
This group of eco musicians performs about 200 street and stage concerts a year in their local community in Seoul‚ around the nation‚ and even abroad.
And although Noridan started out as a band‚ it is now investing in nurturing a professional group of vocalists representing all ethnic and cultural backgrounds.
This project‚ called the "Intercultural and Transnational Chorus"‚ is Noridan's attempt at achieving inclusive development through the means of art and music.
[Reporter : Ryu Hyo-bong‚ Co-representative
Noridan ] "One of the reasons we started the intercultural chorus project is because we wanted to present a more innovative social venture model that can work in our multicultural society."
Candidates must go through a singing audition to be given a chance for apprenticeship training.
It is only after completing an appreticeship successfully that candidates can become full-time Noridan employees.
The company recently held the second round of auditions to give more people the opportunity to pursue their dreams.
Sukatin‚ an Indonesian native who married a Korean man‚ also participated in the audition.
[Reporter : Sukatin‚ Contestant
] "I want to become a member of Noridans' Intercultural and Transnational Chorus because I can give strength to the weary through my singing which I enjoy very much."
Famous Korean pop singer In Soon Yi served as the chief judge for the event‚ which was sponsored by Incheon International Airport and the city government of Bucheon.
More than 20 singers representing nations like Mongolia‚ Bangladesh‚ and Morocco sang their favorite songs‚ many of which were melodies from their own countries.
And regardless of the results‚ the participants were happy that they could show off their passion for singing.
[Interview : Kim Yeon-ji‚ Reporter
yjkim@arirang.co.kr] "Noridan provides an exemplary model of social responsibility that brings together local governments‚ NGOs‚ and corporations to help the young and old realize their dreams of changing the world through art and music."
