Gai Johnson from The Georgia Straight wrote, during our Canadian Première at the 2018 Vancouver International Dance Festival.

 

Choreographer Young Soon Kim’s iyouuswe (“I-you-us-we”) is a journey that challenges viewers to examine who we are and how we relate to one another, then there’s hope for humanity yet. This beautifully crafted piece for nine dancers may present moments of subtle tension, but it pulses most profoundly with harmony. Even when the performers are moving individually or idiosyncratically, they’re in sync with each other. In duets, trios, and other ever-shifting configurations, things unfurl organically; there’s a natural, poetic rhythm here that hums beneath, as if to imply things are unfolding as they should—whether it’s within a couple or the universe itself. Most crucial is fresh choreographic phrasing, which Kim says in her program notes she developed in collaboration with the dancers over a period of 18 months. Although it revolves around relationships—whether it’s romance, us versus them, or self-love—iyouuswe never devolves into cliché.
