Hi.

This is Kim Soo-hyun, a reporter in charge of SBS performance.

This is the 75th post for you who are tired of Bangkok on Friday, February 26, 2021.

There's been a lot of news about vaccines these days.

I hope that the fight against Corona 19 will soon end.

Here are some online performances to watch on the weekend and next week.



● National Opera's online video service'Knomy Opera' opened The



National Opera's online video service was officially launched on the 22nd.

The brand name is Knomy Opera.

It is a compound word of KNO and My Opera, the abbreviation of National Opera.

Knomy Opera consists of'My Opera LIVE', which broadcasts the first episode of regular performances held by the National Opera Group live in real time, and'My Opera VOD', which allows you to appreciate the video contents of the National Opera Company.

LIVE and VOD can be enjoyed by individual payment method, and there is also an annual membership system.




Standard members can freely view VOD for 33,000 won per year, and premium members can watch all of My Opera LIVE, the first live broadcast of regular performances, for 99,000 won.

Until June 1st, the annual membership fee is also 50% off.

If you sign up for an annual membership, you can get a 30% discount even when you go to an offline opera performance.



Currently, VOD of past performances, such as'Manon','Fidelio', and'Camellia Lady', is being serviced at a level of 1,100 won to 4,400 won, and free VODs such as the school opera'Love Potion' are also available.

When regular performances start this year, the repertoire will increase further.

Since it is the first opera online video service in Korea, I am curious about how it will operate in the future and how much response will be gained.



● Princess Hamlet, not a prince_ The national theater company'Hamlet' played by Lee Bong-ryun (26-27th) The



national theater company released a new work'Hamlet' of unfortunate that could not be on stage due to corona 19 and the restoration work of last year's Myeongdong Arts Theater fire. It premieres in an online theater.

On the occasion of the 70th anniversary of its founding, the National Theater Company conducted a survey of the most wanted dramas, and'Hamlet' ranked second after'Cho's Orphan'.

'Hamlet' has been performed countless times, but this performance became a hot topic with the first collaboration between actor Lee Bong-ryun's Hamlet and writer Jeong Jin-sae and director Bu Saerom.




Danish prince'Hamlet' is played by female actor Lee Bong-ryun.

Princess Hamlet is depicted as a successor to the throne and a naval officer who is good at sword fighting. It is a story of a human being in conflict over good and evil without focusing on the gender of the character called Hamlet.

You can see the honest and straightforward Hamlet created by young artists.

The single point of view shows the point of view when the audience sits in the auditorium and looks at the stage, and the entire stage can be seen at a glance without moving the camera, allowing you to simultaneously view the entire movement of the play and the stage direction.

Multi-view is an edited, cinematic version of footage from a camera shot from multiple locations.

You can observe the actors' detailed facial expressions in close-ups.



The single screening will be shown at 7:30pm on the 26th (Fri) and 27th (Sat), and the multi-view video will be shown at 3pm on the 27th (Sat).
