Sue/Seoulite/A passionate theatre-goer/ and A.R.M.Y! To make sure about writing Korean names, Koreans write family names first so I will keep this system. ex. Hong(family name)+Kwang ho(first name) Hope you get the names right! Even though this blog is mainly focusing on Korean musicals, I do follow other countries' musical productions! Feel free to ask questions about Korean musicals! love sharing musical talks:)

Current status
Hello,
I haven't really logged in for last few years(!) and now I found out I still get many messages from people asking me recordings or soundtracks of Korean musicals. So I thought I should share my current life and why I don't upload anymore.
I moved to another country. I am living outside of Korea since last year, so it's not possible to see Korean musicals.
I don't follow Korean musicals anymore. My love for musicals are the same, but for last few years I haven't really watched musicals. One big reason is that I love big theater shows, but recent years I felt big shows in Korea are staying in their comfort zone. Same shows, same casts, same stage set and costume, etc. I LOOOOVE Korean actors but when they are always on every show I see, that is not very exciting to watch over and over +10 years. (And the ticket price is getting higher) These days, Korean musical scene looks very active on small, middle sized theaters. They take adventures hiring new actors, and more talents gets their chance to shine. And they have many new Korean-made shows which is very refreshing. But my taste on musical highly biased on big-sized shows, so I didn't really see musicals often as before.
It would be problem to share bootlegs When I was passionate about musicals around early 2010s, many musical fans voice recorded the musicals and it was considered their unique culture. By that time Korean musical scene was very small and it was very hard to get any official recordings. So voice recording was one and only way to remember that specific performance. But now the industry is getting bigger and they often release official soundtrack or even DVDs and photo albums. So it seems that fan culture has also been changed and people are more strict about someone who records/share on the internet. So I don't upload it anymore.
I really enjoyed communicating with fellow musical fans on tumblr, but it's sad that I haven't got any new information to share anymore.
Sorry if you sent me messages and not get any reply from me. Hope everybody have a lovely Christmas and happy new year in advance!

I notice you link to the Interpark website a few times. Is it a good site to buy tickets? (I haven't quite managed beig able to uae websites for some of the specific theatre websites, so.)
Sorry for my late answer!Interpark is one of the major ticket sellers in Korea, and you can find good tickets for the majority of musicals&concerts on Korea. Also, they have a English page so I have recommended this website a lot. :)
