Hitting our shores this month, The New Paper had the chance to chat with the captivating cast before they unleash their energy on local audiences.
The musical's boldness is well-known, so naturally, we had to ask the cast if they consider themselves sex symbols. Their answers, like the men themselves, were diverse. Kim Jin Woo confidently declared,"Yes, I do think so. Being on the Wild Wild stage itself means being recognised as a sex symbol." These performances require immense dedication and the cast members revealed their routines. Jeong Han-saem is"bulking up" for the Singapore show:"I am increasing my body size and putting on more muscles, as I plan to perform more powerfully."For Kang Chun-il, maintaining a positive mindset is key. He acknowledges the importance of physical fitness for a visual performance but also believes in staying upbeat.
Roh Jin-wook expressed his gratitude for the post-show appreciation:"During the performance, it's hard to see the audience clearly because I'm focused on the show, but during the curtain call, I can see their faces. When I see them genuinely happy and cheering... that's a truly happy moment for me as an actor."
