The word "Dangcle" means a wooden frame hung on the ceiling of a house in Jeju. There is a story that god comes to this frame when performing a tranditional ceremony. Jeju's traditional ritual music was reinterpreted in a modern way, and it was embodied as the light of LED, making God come to ceremony. LED was designed and the graphic was VJing in real time to the DJ's music.
