Pogurakmu is one of the dances and songs performed in the royal court, representing the game of throwing a ball into a hole. According to "The History of Goryeo" and "The Treasures of Evil," Pogurakmu originated from China during the Goryeo Dynasty and was passed down to the early Joseon Dynasty. Jinju Pogurakmu originated from Jeong Hyeon-seok's Gyobang song (a song and dance performed to welcome wages on the road) during the reign of King Gojong (1863-1907).

Pogurakmu wears a crown (a hat used for dancing and singing) on a mongduri (a dress worn by a giraffe or shaman). If you look at the sequence of proceedings, you will first place the port gate in the middle and divide it into two pieces. When you play music that marks the beginning, the bamboo ganza (a person holding a stick made of bamboo) goes further and stands on the left and right sides of the port gate, shouting slogans and backing down. Dance in various shapes according to different rhythms and throw the ball into the hole one by one. When the ball goes in, it receives a flower as a prize and sings the song, but if it doesn't go in, it is dipped in a brush with ink and stamped on the face. The last of the chants of the bamboozle is to leave with a dance.

Jinju Pogurakmu is a Pogurakmu handed down from Jinju. The characteristic is that the flower crowns, mongduri and bamboo ganja in the royal port rock dance were removed, a song was added to the performance marking the beginning of the banquet, and a change in the method of reward and punishment was made. Jinju Pogurakmu was handed down as a unique play with folk elements along with various changes as Pogurakmu came down to the provinces, and Jeong Geum-soon, who lives in Jinju, continues to play.
