SEOUL—The Divine Performing Arts Seoul premiere of the Chinese Spectacular on February 22 has attracted celebrities from Korea's political, arts and media arenas, as well ambassadors to Korea, including Dr. Norbert Baas, German Ambassador to Korea, and his wife Annabel Von Arnim-Baas.

Mrs. Baas praised that the entire program was wonderful, especially "Water Sleeves" which she described its calligraphy as graceful and beautiful. Mrs. Bass also expressed her delight in the Mongolian Bowl Dance. She found the entire program to be excellent and said she had never watched such a good performance of Chinese dance before.
