Actor Yang So-min meets audiences once again in the play "Orphans (Orphans)".
Following last season, Yang So-min again takes the stage in "Orphans" this season, reprising the role of Harold, which had drawn attention for its gender-free casting, adding depth to the production. "Orphans" is set in north Philadelphia and tells the story of middle-aged gangster Harold and orphaned brothers Treat and Philip becoming a family through an odd cohabitation, and the play has been a topic of conversation each season for its weighty themes and dense narrative, earning praise from audiences and critics alike.
Harold, whom Yang So-min portrays, is a middle-aged gangster who is kidnapped by the orphaned brothers and drives the tension of the play; he is a character who, starting from the precarious beginning of their relationship, gradually seeps into the brothers' lives and brings about change. In this season, Yang So-min plans to expand Harold's narrative by focusing more on the character's emotional and internal texture beyond his external settings. She is expected to firmly anchor the play's center by convincingly revealing the human warmth hidden behind a rough and threatening exterior and the cracks in emotion that appear at turning points in relationships.
Yang So-min, who has freely moved between drama, film and the stage to build her own acting spectrum, has demonstrated steady acting across genres through various drama works such as "Shadow Detective season 2", "Play, Plee", "Face Me", "Resident Playbook", and films including "The Girl on the Bulldozer" and "Hanran." Especially on stage, she has solidified the epithet "a seasoned actor" by showing the essence of live performance with delicate emotional control and densely paced interplay with audiences.
Through the play "Orphans," he is expected to once again portray human frailty and the hope that resides within it deeply. This work, where sharp lines and concentrated emotions intersect, delivers to the audience weighty questions and at the same time a warm message of consolation, and when met with Yang So-min's deep acting, it promises an even deeper resonance.
The presence of Yang So-min, which will be proven once again on stage, and the comforting message conveyed by "Orphans" are expected to offer audiences a time that lingers like an afterimage.
