The representative musical actress of Korea, Ok Joo-hyun, raises the status of Korean musicals globally.
Musical actress Ok Joo-hyun will participate in a fan meeting and master class taking place in Shanghai, China, from the 29th to the 31st.
Regarded as a leading singer and actress in Korea, Ok Joo-hyun has become a symbol of Korean musicals that are taking a leap beyond Asia, actively performing in major works such as the musicals 'Elisabeth,' 'Wicked,' 'Mata Hari,' and 'Rebecca.' With her delicate acting stemming from deep insights that penetrate the narratives of the works, and her extraordinary vocal ability that captivates the audience by traversing between low and high notes, Ok Joo-hyun is now loved not only in Korea but worldwide.
The participation of Ok Joo-hyun, who is recognized as a leading musical actress and the 'queen of musicals,' in this fan meeting and master class in China holds even deeper significance. As an actress with many fans both domestically and abroad, including in China, it is expected to be a meaningful first step in promoting the status of 'K-musicals' and facilitating cultural exports and exchanges. Proof of this can be seen as tickets for Ok Joo-hyun's fan meeting in Shanghai sold out almost instantly right after the opening, demonstrating her popularity and buzz.
On the 29th, Ok Joo-hyun will meet local fans at the Musical Center A space in Shanghai's Cultural Square. On that day, she will share stories based on her experiences gained while working as a musical actress across various productions, as well as insights on international cultural exchanges in musicals. Through this event, she is expected to not only interpret the possibilities for cultural exports of Chinese original performances but also present a beautiful stage that only Ok Joo-hyun can showcase.
Ok Joo-hyun's solo master class is scheduled to take place three times from the 29th to the 31st. This master class will feature one-on-one in-depth coaching for musical actors actively working in China, combined with rich theories of musicals and practical stage experiences. Additionally, special coaching will be conducted to analyze in detail the problems and essentials of musical acting and singing through professional face-to-face coaching.
In particular, Ok Joo-hyun not only participates in Korean original musicals such as 'Mata Hari,' 'Marie Curie,' and 'Red Book,' but she has also actively engaged in nurturing younger generations, thus attracting significant attention for her expanded activities from Korea to China.
After completing the fan meeting and master class in Shanghai, China, from the 29th to the 31st, Ok Joo-hyun plans to meet the public in various fields as both a musical actress and a singer in Korea.
