Since the 9-11 attacks in New York and
the beginning of the Iraq War, there has been a great
deal of tension in the world. Young, old and children
alike are major victims of this awful situation. Then
we can throw a question if their hope to live in peace
is too much for them. They face a reality that is full
of fear, tension and suppression, while at the same
time they are badly longing for peace. As one of the
extreme examples in the world, we can point to North
Korea, a dictatorial country that deprives people of
freedom.

We have a very clear object to plan this
performance for expressing how much we wish to keep
peace for all the human kinds on this earth. We feel
very sorry to see too many young people sacrificing
their lives in the wars. Just looking at the reality
doesn't do anything for it so we have decided to share
this feeling more largely with more people through our
POPERA performance. By doing that, we may let others
understand better and more strongly how important it
is to keep peace among the human races.
