Super Junior’s Eunhyk and SNSD’s Tiffany are cast in the musical film Fame

Super Junior’s Eunhyk and SNSD’s Tiffany are taking up the challenge to act in a new Korean version of the musical Fame.

Fame was a hit musical film in 1980 and was so popular that it was followed up with a six-season television series and many staged versions both on Breadway and off. Productions of Fame have continued to enjoy success worldwide right up to the present.

The film depicts a group of vibrant, energetic students who audition to study at a school of performing arts.

The strict auditioning selects only the most competent candidates, who aspire to study dancing, singing, acting, and various other performing arts. The students who pass the auditions work diligently and dream to get into the top percentile of those who perform well at school. In the Korean musical, actor Son Ho Young and Go Eun Sung will take Nick Piazza’s role, Super Junior’s Eunhyk and actor Kim Dae Hyun will do Tyrone Jackson’s role, and SNSD’s Tiffany and actress Shin Eui Jung will play Carmen Diaz. The role of Serena Katz will be played by The Grace’s Lina and actress Choi Joo Ri, and the role of Schlomo Metzenbaum will be played by TRAX’s Jung Mo and violinist Lee Il Keun.

Tickets for Fame will be sold from September 6 at 10:00 a.m., and the performances will be held at the Olympic Park Geum Yoong Art Hall. The show will run from November 25 until January 29 next year.
