[문화]’Stopped’ big musical returns…ticket war

[앵커]

Large-scale musicals that repeatedly acted in acting due to the reinforcement of corona prevention guidelines such as’Seat two spaces apart’ have returned one after another.

Groups are allowed to sit together, but the number of seats available is still halfway, so popular performances are experiencing a’ticket war’.

Reporter Kim Sang-woo on the report.

“Who is Minbi?” “I am the queen of Joseon.”

Operation Fox Hunt.

Japanese old men intrude into Gyeongbokgung Palace and attack Empress Myeongseong.

The sound of knives and gunshots endlessly.

The work depicting the tragic life of Empress Myeongseong re-entered the stage after two years.

In the aftermath of Corona, it was stopped after only previewing three times last month.

[김소현 / 배우 (명성황후 역) : 당연한 것들이 당연해지지 않은 시대잖아요. 그래서 무대에 서는 게 매일매일 마지막 공연이라는 마음으로 최선을 다해서 하고 있고요. 와주신 관객분들한테도 너무 감사한 마음이 많이 드는 요즘인 것 같아요.]

It is a narrative drama that contains the heartfelt love of Gojong along with the appearance of a female politician who strives to defend the country against the powers.

[김소현 / 배우 (명성황후 역) : ‘하늘이여 이 자들을 지켜봐 주세요’라는 대사를 마지막으로 (맺지 못하고) 죽거든요. 그래서 정말 내가 죽어도 내가 죽임을 당해서도 끝나지 않을 이 역사에 대해서 많이 생각하게 되는 것 같아요.]

The musical’Wicked’ based on the fairy tale’The Wizard of Oz’, Ok Joo-hyun and Jeong Sun-ah, who were together at the time of the Korean premiere, meet again after 7 years to hold the’Green Witch Show’.

As the quarantine guidelines were somewhat relaxed, performance schedules for some of the works were readjusted, such as adding performances for the Lunar New Year holidays for’Wicked’.

It is said that the number of seats has increased slightly as the group is allowed to sit together, but the number of seats has decreased, so popular works are experiencing a so-called’ticket war’.

[남창임 / 인터파크 홍보팀 차장 : 팬덤을 많이 가지고 계신 배우분들은 티켓이 오픈되면 좌석이 바로바로 매진되는 그런 현상이 있습니다.]

In the case of popular works featuring star actors, there are even scums that are sold online with more money.

In this regard, actor Ok Joo-hyun, through SNS, struck a glance at the female representative, and the production company also called for attention to fraud, such as the transfer of tickets.
