According to the city on November 20, this performance of "Sarajine" breaks away from conventional formats, organically blending a variety of artistic genres. The innovative work is expected to blur the boundaries between genres and offer audiences a unique, sensory experience.

In particular, the production distinguishes itself by expanding music beyond a mere background or auditory element, transforming it into an artistic experience that stimulates all five senses. Within the play, music not only supports the mood of each scene but also actively drives the narrative and plays a central role in shaping the overall flow.

On stage, the actors and ensemble work in close harmony to build an intense storyline. The production delivers its philosophical message-"Only by disappearing can one truly live"-in a multidimensional way through both visual and auditory elements. As a result, audiences can experience a profound sense of immersion and liberation as the boundaries between stage and reality dissolve.

This work is a collaborative creation by composers Lee Yeonseung and Yang Younggwang, and director Seo Jiweon. On stage, Choi Jinhan, Kim Jeongsu, Noh Hwayeon, and Jo Yeonhee present choreography, while actors such as Kim Bomin, Kim Donggyu, and Park Donggeun maximize the emotional resonance of the piece through their performances.

To enhance the musical quality, the production features conductor Kim Shinwoong, flutist Kim Junghyun, clarinetist Lee Somin, percussionists Shin Bongju and Lee Jeongsu, pianist Lim Bohyun, violinist Kim Museon, violist Song Mina, cellist Kim Seungse, and double bassist Park Sihyun-all highly skilled musicians.

The performance is open to audiences aged eight and above, with free admission on a first-come, first-served basis starting 30 minutes before the show.

Mayor Lee Haksoo stated, "I hope this performance will allow citizens to rediscover the vitality of everyday life through the inspiration of art and deepen their cultural sensibilities."
