Little Angels Children's Folk Ballet of Korea

The Little Angels Children’s Folk Ballet of Korea (Korean: 리틀엔젤스예술단) is a South Korean traditional art and dance troupe made up of elementary and middle school children,[1] founded in 1962 by Sun Myung Moon, the founder of the Unification Church, to project a positive image of South Korea to the world.

School fees are sponsored by Sunhwa Educational Foundation so that any talented girl can apply.

From the very beginning, the mission of the school was to be ambassadors of peace and goodwill,[9] and use creativity to counter the negative image of South Korea at that time, symbolized by famine, poverty, and abandonment, by spreading the 5,000-year-old Korean cultural traditions.

The North Korean leadership subsequently sent a Pyongyang school team to tour South Korea in May 2000.

[7] Little Angels started their tour in Norfolk, United States because of ties of the city to General McArthur, who according to officiators turned the momentum of the war.
