THE BOYZ’s New is set to make his musical theater debut in a star-crossed romance.<\/p>\n

One Hundred, New’s agency, has announced that the K-pop idol will take on the role of Romeo in the upcoming production of “Romeo and Juliet.” The musical is slated to open on March 24 at Seoul’s KEPCO Art Center, marking New’s first venture into the world of musical theater.<\/p>\n

“Romeo and Juliet,” based on Shakespeare’s timeless play, first premiered in Paris in 2001. The production was an instant hit, selling out for an entire year and attracting a staggering 5 million viewers across Europe. The Korean adaptation in 2007 was equally successful, drawing around 100,000 theatergoers. Now, after a 19-year hiatus, the show is making its highly anticipated return to Korean stages.<\/p>\n

A character poster released on the 9th gave fans their first look at New’s transformation into the iconic lover. The idol will portray Romeo as a dreamer who stumbles into a masked ball, encounters Juliet, and experiences love at first sight. As the story unfolds, Romeo’s character evolves through the power of love. Industry insiders are eager to see how New will bring his signature nuanced performance to this complex role.<\/p>\n

This musical marks a significant milestone in New’s career since his 2017 debut with THE BOYZ. Having already captured the hearts of global fans through the group’s music releases, New is now poised to showcase his versatility and expand his artistic repertoire through this theatrical venture.<\/p>\n

“Romeo and Juliet,” featuring New, will run from March 24 to May 31 at the KEPCO Art Center in Seoul. As the curtain rises on this new chapter in New’s career, fans and theater enthusiasts alike are buzzing with anticipation.<\/p>\n
