tanztalk mit Jung In Lee
1h 10m | Jan 23, 2022Jung In Lee wurde als drittes von drei Kindern in eine gewöhnliche Familie in Seoul, Südkorea, hineingeboren. Als das kleine Energiebündel, genannt LiLi, anfing zu tanzen, wusste es bald, dass es mehr davon will. Prompt nahm sie den größten Koffer, den sie finden konnte und stieg in das Flugzeug Richtung Berlin, Europa. Welche Erfahrungen die junge Tänzerin und Choreografin danach machen durfte und warum ihre Liebe immer noch für Südkorea brennt, verrät sie im nächsten tanztalk.
