Mudang dances during a shaman gut

Korean mudang (female shaman priest) dances and plays the symbols during a gut (shaman ceremony) at Inwangsan shamanist village in Seoul, South Korea. The gut involves dancing and chanting to a beat played out by musicians which allows the mudang to connect with spirits of the departed.
