It's time to make a thread I think lol I'll use this thread for introducing Original Korean musical
I saw Barameui Nara(the Country of wind) a few days ago
and I was blown away!Really AMAZING!! This was the best experience
that I have ever had at the theatre.It captured my heart automatically
and I'm very obsessed by the score and all that so I thought I'd write
about this on here although you guys seem not that interested in foreign
musicals
This is based on the Korean comic book "Barameui Nara" www.koreapop.com/culture/news/culture_news_17.shtml which is very famous
manhwa but I am not really a manhwa person so I did know nothing about
this work in the past.The story is about the king Muhyul(Daemooshin) of Goguryeo
and it's focused on his love story and relationship with his son and his tough political belief.
The most notable thing about this musical is that it's not the traditinal
musical style, in terms of the line and composition. It's not the 4steps of compositon
and the lines are like poetic and actually there aren't much lines and the sets are
very minimum and they used projected images for fantasy they tried to show lotsa
things through the choreography. I'm really impressed by that!
So fresh and moving and thrilling
For score, it's very unique cuz they use a lot of genre like Rap,Kpop,Classical etc
and it suits unbelievably to the show and I like main theme best.
I felt like I'm seeing an alive comic book through the whole show How fantastic!!!
I'm dying to see again right now.I wish I could live in Seoul
