Emergence of a new Korean musical performance in 2010 - The Non-verbal Performance “Beat”

“BEAT” is quickly attracting attention as a unique and sophisticated piece of work that differs from previous non-verbal performances, such as “JUMP” and “NANTA”. Set against the backdrop of a junkyard, the encounters between rock stars and junkyard workers are translated into a musical performance where rock and traditional Korean beats come together. Music plays a large role in “BEAT”. The actors, a four-member rock band composed of drums, guitar, base and keyboard perform the live music. In particular, instruments created from old car parts will be played for the first time in the history of Korean theatre.
