Predawn Merrie Monarch Hula Festival Preparations

by Edith Ellis

Silvery winter light washes over a wide public square in Busan, where hula dancers gather in the predawn darkness. Traditional hula skirts of vibrant yellow and green rest on the pavement beside folded mats. Performers in formal attire stand in quiet rows, their faces illuminated by the pale glow of streetlamps. The air holds a stillness that settles over the concrete ground. In the background, the faint outlines of modern buildings frame the gathering. One lantern casts a soft pool of light on a lei laid out on the ground, marking the spot where the first performance will begin.
