La Yunko, el polémico triunfo de una japonesa en el festival flamenco de las Minas

This worksheet begins with a vocabulary matching activity, followed by a reading section with varied exam-style questions, and concludes with a speaking question for discussion and preparation. It includes a summary of Junko Hagiwara’s historic win as the first non-Spanish dancer to receive the prestigious El Desplante award at the Festival del Cante de las Minas. Despite controversy over her origins, La Yunko, who has lived in Seville since 2002, views flamenco as her “way of life,” challenging traditional cultural limits.
