"Apgujeong Story: The Price of a Place" Reimagines Han Myeong-hoe for Modern Seoul

New community musical connects Joseon history with contemporary questions of ambition, belonging and survival.

A pavilion built more than 500 years ago becomes the starting point for a story about young people searching for a place to call their own.

Premiering this August, Apgujeong Story: The Price of a Place transforms the history behind one of Seoul's most recognizable neighborhoods into a contemporary musical about ambition, identity and the pursuit of belonging.
