Super Junior’s Kyuhyun is building up his resume in the musical theater industry as he appears in his third musical this year, “The Days.”

According to the production company Insight Entertainment on August 27, Kyuhyun is confirmed to appear in the musical wherein he will show his growth as a musical actor.

Super Junior’s Kyuhyun, who has played lead roles in the musicals “The Three Musketeers,” “Catch Me If You Can,” “The Moon that Embraces the Sun” and “Singin in the Rain,” will take on another big role in the musical “The Days.”

In “The Days,” Kyuhyun will play the character Mooyeong, the witty and free-spirited Blue House security staff and friend of Jeong Hak, the lead character.

Meanwhile, aside from Kyuhyun, actor Ji Chang Wook has also been cast as Mooyeong.

The musical, “The Days” will open on October 21 at the Daehangno Musical Center. Ticketing starts on August 28.

From what I gather this will be more of a supportive role, which tbh I think will be a good thing. A. It's not a musical that relies solely on idol star power for ticketing. B. His schedule is already crazy what with with the comeback (+repackage?) promotions, Super Show 6 concert tour, Radio Star and Master's studies. Apparently the musical will be running until January next year.

I really love his singing in musicals. Can't embed, but Nightmare is one of my favorites too.

Great post. Does anyone know if it's a "produced" musical (or not, idr which) like TMTETS was? I remember he and others have said that those kinds of musicals are especially good for developing as an actor and learning how to flesh out and depict the roles.

It sounds like it'll be a good deal for him (and us hopefully, if Secret and other sites go, lol). Like I said, we don't want a repeat of 2013 ._.

Not sure what you mean with "produced". At least it should be an original musical right, not a bought one like 3 Musketeers or Catch Me If You Can?

I'm so sad this starts after I leave. I would have loved seeing Ji Chang Wook in a musical. v.v
