Group WJSN member Subin (real name: Park Subin) will take the stage in the musical "Marlee".
Park Subin will play the lead role of "Marlee" in the musical "Marlee," which will be held on the 21st at Baekam Art Hall.
The musical "Marlee" depicts the story of 18-year-old Marlee, who was a glamorous child star in her youth but now leads an ordinary life, who one day goes back in time and, inhabiting the doll "Levi," comes face to face with her 11-year-old self.
While dealing with independence and certainty about the self that anyone may have wondered about at least once, this work, whose varied music adds dramatic effect, held a tryout in 2022 under the title "Marlee's today more special than yesterday" and returned more polished after two years of workshops between Korean and New York creative teams.
The lead role "Marlee," played by Park Subin, was a famous child actor when she was young but is now a loner student living in the United Kingdom. Unlike her glamorous past, she struggles to adapt to school and, because of her blissfully unaware harmonious parents, tends to be negative about everything and wants to escape reality, but she is tender inside and very affectionate. Park Subin will deepen this complexly emotional "Marlee" through delicate acting and lyrical vocals, increasing the play's immersion.
Park Subin, who made her musical debut in July 2023 with the musical "Aloha, My Mothers," proved her delicate acting, expressiveness and outstanding vocal power in "The Great Comet," leaving a strong impression as a musical actress. In July she challenged a distinctive character through the musical "Burn the Witch," delivering moving performances with more dimensional acting and solid vocals that touched audiences, so expectations are growing for what kind of performance she will show in "Marlee."
Through her agency Starship Entertainment, Park Subin said she is very grateful and honored to greet audiences again with the meaningful work "Marlee." She noted that when she first read the script she focused on how to best express Marlee's complex emotions and situations and the character's sincerity, and practiced with that in mind. She added that she prepared hard so she could move audiences through the story of Marlee finding her true self, and she hopes many people look forward to it. She said she hopes people will make warmer and more special memories with "Marlee" this year-end.
Meanwhile, the musical "Marlee," in which Park Subin appears, will run at Baekam Art Hall through Feb. 15, 2026.
