[Invitation Seat] Junsu Kim, the icon of the musical 'Dracula'

<Anchor> As the

corona situation gradually improves, the performance world, especially musicals, is receiving a lot of love from the audience.

One of them is the musical 'Dracula', which reopened the fourth season after a year, and the nightline guest seat, the representative icon of the musical 'Dracula', with Junsu Kim.

[Kim Junsu/Musical actor/singer: I feel more grateful than ever.

Because I am so grateful to be able to perform despite the corona virus, but it seems to me that they give me more applause by comparing it to that, so I stand with a really precious heart every time I stand on the stage of a performance.]

[Kim Junsu/Musical actor/singer: I have been participating in the premiere, replay, 3rd streak, this time until 4th streak, and all the way to the

.]

[Kim Junsu/Musical actor/singer: Yes. Also, scenes themselves are added and omitted, songs are added, and there are things like that, and apart from that, as an actor who treats the work, he gives variations through lines, tone of voice, intonation, and other things in the same scene in many different ways. I do. Also, every time the actors do it, it changes, little by little. The energy that the characters give is different, so I perform another acting or song according to it. I think that kind of work itself is a very enjoyable process.]

[Junsu Kim/Musical actor/singer: In a different sense, in a different way, in a way, the burden is inevitably increased. People who have seen me have a certain level of expectation. Also, the burden of having to show a slightly different or upgraded image seems to coexist. There seems to be a trade-off.]

[Kim Junsu/Musical actor/singer: Dracula in the musical Once you say Dracula, I think that everyone will experience it at least once in various dramas and movie media. What's new about this musical Dracula is the sad story of how she had no choice but to become Dracula, or a love story that misses only one woman for 400 years, things like that. So, I think it’s a work where we can see another side that we didn’t know about.]

[Kim Junsu/Musical actor/singer: I find this ironic too.

So it's a premiere, and it happened suddenly, two or three days before the 2014 premiere.

Originally, I was going to do it with black and pomade hair that everyone knows, but now there is a god like that to express that I am young by vampires.

But now, visually, it's not just the black pomade hair we all know, but something that sucks blood and seems to have transferred it to my head. Do I have to say that I started with , and suddenly came to work with red hair?]

[Junsu Kim/Musical actor/singer: I feel good when I play, but it is inconvenient for my normal life.

Water drains well.

So it is painful to have to keep dyeing once a week.

Also, if you don't put a towel on it when you sleep, the water will run out...

.

Even now, there is red water on the sofa and I am still struggling with how to erase it.]

[Kim Junsu/Musical actor/singer: At that time, I felt like I was crossing a big mountain for me at every moment, to the extent that I couldn’t even think that I could do well in musicals for such a long time.

But looking back now, I think I’m getting a lot of rewarding feelings like that.

[Kim Junsu/Musical actor/singer: I am also active as a musical actor now, but my main job started as a singer, so should I say the balance between the two? It is such a wish to continue meeting fans and audiences while maintaining a good balance.]

[Kim Junsu/Musical actor/singer: In the past, when I hear stories like this, I want to go to an awards ceremony and receive an award. These kinds of conversations were the main thing, but now I want to continue meeting with the audience as a suitable role that fits that goal even if I get older than that goal. How happy would I be if that kind of thing lasts for a long time, as an actor. I am approaching it with that in mind. That is also my goal.]
