Good Morning!
This citation came through on one of my alerts. The article was not
translated from Korean other than the abstract so I offfer you that.
Perhaps our international panel member at the conference will be able to
shed more light on this for those who come to the conference.

PURPOSE: This study was aimed to identify the effects of a 12 week
Korean traditional dance movement program on balance, depression,
medical cost, medical institution's utilization and fall among elderly
women. METHODS: Using a quasi-experimental design, the experimental
group was composed of 130 subjects and the control group was composed of
123 subjects. The experimental group participated in a 12 week Korean
traditional dance movement program 3 times a week from December 2002 to
February 2003. Data was analyzed with descriptive statistics, the
chi-square test, paired t-test and t-test. RESULTS: There was
significant improvement in balance (right leg p=.000, left leg p=.004),
depression (p=.000), and the medical institution's utilization (p=.001)
and fall (p=.002) in the experimental group compared to the control
group. CONCLUSION: A Korean traditional dance movement program improved
balance, depression, and decreased fall and medical cost in elderly
women. Therefore, we recommend this program be utilized as a health
promoting program and falls preventing program for the elderly in the
community.
