I already heard many times about musical but I never watch
it live or on TV. I also like listening to the music but I didn’t pay much
attention to musical. I think, in Indonesia musical is not so well-known event for
mostly people if we compare to concerts, except for several people who like
this kind of event.
Since the title of videos on this channel mostly is written
in Hangeul and also mix in English, so I picked a random video and BAM. I found
video with SHINee’s Key on it. Since I like SHINee, his appearance made me more
excited to watch the video.
The title of this video was “Musical In The Heights Showcase”.
This is the showcase of Korean Production of Musical “In The Heights”. This
musical was originally based on the Broadway Musical that premiered in March
2008. It tells the story of the life of immigrants living in Washington Heights,
on the northern tip of Manhattan, which is known as a largely Latin American
neighborhood of New York City.
The video starts with the entrance of the casts sing &
dance together for a few seconds. On the stage already set numerous seats for
those casts. As they sit, SHINee’s Key stands up and starts to sing a song titled
“In The Heights”. Key is not the only Idol who plays in this musical. There are
also Infinite’s Jang Dongwoo and Kim Sungkyu. Yang Don Geun, J-Min, and Oh Seo
Yeun also take a part of this musical.
Because this is just a showcase and not the actual event of
the musical, this video only shows us the songs that will be played at the
musical with little acts from the casts. The played songs are In The Height, It
Won’t Be Long Now, 96.000, When You’re Home, Sunrise, Carnaval Del Barrio,
Champagne, and Finale. Of course, all these songs were played based on the
original musical.
If the original musical was delivered in English and Spanish,
the songs in this Korean productions are delivered in Korean and mixed little
in Spanish. Despite of it, the melody is still influenced by Latin American
vibes. They also sing various genre such as rap, hip hop, and pop.
Even though the showcase and even the musical already played
several months ago, the video of this showcase is still worth to watch because
all the casts has amazing vocals and their acts on that small stage are pretty
cool and funny. The songs are also easy listening. I enjoyed listening to the
songs.
Only watch the showcase made me curious to see the real
musical. The channel V Musical also has the preview in 30 seconds of In The
Heights musical. The stage and the performance in that short time made me curious
even more.
