As part of the "2023 Kids Festa in Pohang" event, the musical "Gangchijeon" has been beloved by local children, selling out all seats in both its 2019 premiere and its 2021 performances.

Now in its fifth year, "Gangchijeon" has been selected for four consecutive years in the "Cultural Sharing Across the Country with Arts Centers - Excellent Performance Program for National and Public Arts Organizations," hosted by the Korea Culture and Arts Centers Association. It has reached diverse audiences by visiting cities such as Osan in Gyeonggi Province, Wonju and Gangneung in Gangwon Province, Gwangyang in Jeollanam-do, and Seongju in Gyeongsangbuk-do.

Additionally, "Gangchijeon" is growing as a representative killer content of Pohang by developing musical number streaming services and musical-linked arts education programs. In particular, the musical "Gangchijeon" overcomes the limitations of one-time performances and regional boundaries by meeting audiences nationwide every year, transcending its identity as a locally produced musical.

Returning to Pohang after two years, the traditional Korean music family musical "Gangchijeon" is equipped with even stronger acting skills and live performances, promising to offer special memories to family audiences. It is also scheduled to be performed on July 14 at the Arirang Center in Jeongseon, Gangwon Province.

A representative of the Pohang Cultural Foundation said, "The traditional Korean music family musical Gangchijeon is a work of great significance as content created locally is advancing beyond the region to stages nationwide," adding, "We ask for much interest in the musical Gangchijeon, which will offer special memories with families in May."

Tickets for the musical "Gangchijeon" are available on Ticketlink, with various discounts such as "Watch Gangchijeon Again" and companion guardian discounts offered.

Performance information can be found on the Pohang Cultural Foundation website, and after the performance, a photo time event with the actors will be held in the lobby.

The musical "Gangchijeon" is a coming-of-age drama depicting the story of the boy Gangchi Donghae, who loses his parents to a group of black shadows, wanders the world, meets friends, and eventually returns to the East Sea. It is loved for its live traditional Korean music performances and beautiful musical numbers.
