[Asia Economy Reporter Park Byung-hee] The original musical "The Time of Dogs and Cats" will be performed from July 7 to September 20 at Dream Art Center Hall 1 in Daehak-ro, Seoul.

"The Time of Dogs and Cats" is a two-person play featuring two characters, Raptor and Pluto. Raptor is a large figure who appears intimidating at first glance but holds a warm heart as he waits for a friend who has been missing for over a year. Pluto is curious and free-spirited but grew up being told by people that he is ominous. He feels more comfortable in back alleys than in a cozy home.

The play begins with the chance meeting of Raptor and Pluto. Neither is particularly fond of the other. However, as they share their worries about not fitting into the world and their experiences of enduring that time, they gradually grow closer. Though they are in different situations, they understand that each has gone through a difficult journey requiring courage, and they slowly open the doors of their hearts to each other.

"The Time of Dogs and Cats" tells the beautiful influence of 'empathy' between different beings. The work is a collaboration of writer Han Jae-eun, composer Park Hyun-sook, and director Kim Tae-hyung, who previously created the musical "Fan Letter," and was developed over about a year of preparation.

Song Won-geun, Go Sang-ho, Yuria, and Bae Na-ra were cast as Raptor. The role of Pluto is played by Go Hoon-jung, Moon Tae-yoo, Kang Ji-hye, and Kim Woo-seok.

Preview tickets will be available starting at 2 p.m. on the 9th through Ticketlink, Interpark Ticket, and Melon Ticket. A total of eight preview performances from July 7 to 12 can be reserved, and all ticket buyers will receive a 40% discount on preview tickets.
