Ox-plow parade, drawn from the rural farm work, is also
called “ox-plow song.” When the country farmer works in
the fields, he hums and sings songs for himself and others. As for the “dance’, it is modeled
on farming job, but replace the cow with a fake one.
Ox-plow naturally reflect the reality of the emotional
life, mostly sunrise and sunset, monotonous life and
less entertainment. It’s a performance that the early framer used to self-entertain themselves.
Then, it also plays an important role in the important
celebration.
Later, a wealthy family will hire ox-plow performances in the festive
occasions in order to enhance the festive atmosphere. People can also see the performance in the marriage or funeral festive occasions. |
