Hee Seo: ABT's first Korean principal dancer Hee Seo in La Bayadere (ABT) Hee Seo is a South Korean ballet dancer at the American Ballet Theatre. She has participated in various productions, giving her the reputation she has today. After watching her performances, I decided Hee Seo was the dancer I wanted to learn more about. I wanted to learn more about her journey from being a late bloomer, to now being a well-known principal dancer at ABT. Her style of dancing and expressions were very captivating to me. Much of the dancers we read about in our course textbook are from ballets’ place of origin, along with a few other countries, such as Russia. As it is interesting reading about their journeys, I wanted to read about the journey of someone outside of ballets’ place of origin. South Korea is a country that interests me, so coming across Hee Seo piqued my curiosity. Thro
