The 2025 'Performing Arts Regional Distribution Support Project' aims to resolve the imbalance of the performance market concentrated in Seoul and to promote the enjoyment of various genres of pure arts in local regions.

The five works selected for the 'Performing Arts Regional Distribution Support' this time include excellent large-scale works across diverse genres: in the large musical category, Neo Co., Ltd.'s 'Saeui Chanmi'; in dance, Seoul Ballet Theater's 'The Nutcracker'; in music, Global Opera Company's 'La Traviata'; in traditional arts, Akdan Gwangchil's fusion gugak 'Akdan Gwangchil Concert Maeu Chwora!'; and in theater, Theater Company Mulgyul's 'Dondeboi: The Travelers of the Singers.' These selections are expected to enrich the planned performances of the Uijeongbu Cultural Foundation in 2025.

A representative of the Uijeongbu Cultural Foundation stated, "We will continue to establish a low-budget, high-efficiency operation policy and actively participate in Gyeonggi Province and national government public project competitions to attract diverse cultural and artistic works as a representative public performance venue in northern Gyeonggi Province, thereby contributing to the expansion of cultural arts for local residents."
