Ô Kôretsu was a [[scholar-aristocracy of Ryukyu|Ryukyuan scholar-official]] and court musician & dancer.

After serving as a ''gakudôji'' (teenage musician and dancer) on one of the [[Ryukyuan embassies to Edo]], and as a dancer at court, he was appointed lead envoy on a ''[[nentoshi|nentôshi]]'' annual mission to [[Kagoshima]].

Earning formal praise from the court for his accomplishments as ''nentôshi'' envoy, he saw two of his sons, [[O Seihan|Ô Seihan]]<!--翁成藩--> and [[O Shokin|Ô Shôkin]]<!--翁章錦--> named ''gakusei'' (musicians) on a later mission to Edo. Ô Shôkin also later led a ''nentôshi'' mission to Kagoshima.
