Original Musical 'Maybe Happy Ending' Opens in June... Starring Jung Moon-sung and Jeon Mi-do

[Asia Economy Reporter Byunghee Park] The original musical 'Maybe Happy Ending' will open its third season on June 30 at Yes24 Stage 1 in Daehangno.

'Maybe Happy Ending' began its planning and development in 2014 by the Ulan Cultural Foundation, followed by a tryout performance in 2015 and its premiere in 2016. In 2018, it swept six categories at the 2nd Korean Musical Awards (Best Script/Lyrics, Best Composition, Best Actress, Best Direction, Best Producer, Best Small Theater Musical) and four categories at the 6th Yegreen Musical Awards (Musical of the Year, Best Music, Best Direction, Popular Female Award), gaining recognition for both its popularity and artistic quality. In the United States, it attracted attention from local media and critics with a tryout performance under the title 'Maybe Happy Ending' last February.

'Maybe Happy Ending' tells a story of the future through analog acoustic sounds, offering a unique charm that awakens delicate emotions that busy modern people have momentarily forgotten.

The creative team, including director Kim Dong-yeon, who has led 'Maybe Happy Ending' since the tryout, composer Will Aronson, writer Park Cheon-hyu, and music director Joo So-yeon, who have been involved since the premiere, are preparing the stage for the third season as well.

Jung Moon-sung, Jeon Seong-woo, and Yang Hee-jun will play Helperbot 5 'Oliver', while Jeon Mi-do, Kang Hye-in, and Han Jae-ah will play Helperbot 6 'Claire'. Seong Jong-wan and Lee Seon-geun will appear as Oliver's former owner 'James'. Among them, Jung Moon-sung, Jeon Mi-do, and Seong Jong-wan are returning for the third season following the premiere and encore performances. Jung Moon-sung and Jeon Mi-do recently gained attention for their roles in the tvN drama 'Hospital Playlist'.
