Commentary: How can Creativity in a Social Context be Possible?
Glaveanu’s (2010) ‘We-paradigm’ creativity is related to culture and social context, especially due to his emphasis on the role of the community as a provider of criteria for evaluating creativity. In addition, he suggests five principles for studying this kind of creativity. In this article, I will apply these principles to study the Korean cultural phenomenon, Shinmyeong. The characteristics of Shinmyeong, its expressive process and the co-experience, are introduced from the perspective of creativity. By taking musical performances as an example, the expressive process in Shinmyeong experience is considered as the process that may generate creative activities. The interpersonal aspects of the expressive process are discussed within the framework Glaveanu suggests.
