Sorry, I have a few of these to ask. My circus jargon knowledge is a little rusty :)
Again, no context, just a list of cast members and their 'role' in the circus. This term appears as both cuadrante and cuadrando coreano, no sure if one of them is a typo or if they can both be used.
Thanks

Korean cradle
I don't think "cuadrando" is right; all the references I've seen have been with "cuadrante".
There are (at least) two "Korean" circus acts: the Korean plank and the Korean cradle, and despite Taña's reference, which translates cuadrante coreano as Korean plank, I'm sure it's the Korean cradle.
A Korean plank or teeterboard is like a seesaw; somebody jumps on one end and the person on the other hand is projected into the air:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teeterboard
The Korean cradle, on the other hand, is a variant of the ordinary cradle, which is where someone hangs by his/her knees from a frame and catches/tosses another performer (the flyer). In the Korean cradle the catcher is standing, secured by a harness:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cradle_(circus_act)
Notable performers of the Korean cradle are the Morosof Duo or Compagnie Morosof (Rafael Moraes and Blancaluz Capella). Here's their website:

"El Dúo Morosof hará gala de su dominio del cuadrante coreano."
http://hemerotecadigital.institutdelteatre.cat/jspui/bitstre...
"RAFAEL MORAES
Brasil 1977. [...] En 2005 forma la Compagnie Morosof con Blancaluz Capella. Su número de cudrante [sic] coreano con Blancaluz Capella ha ganado la medalla de bronce en el Festival Mondial du Cirque de Demain en el 2008."
