rock of ages: short promo clip + huge onew picture + synopsis

[okdubu.livejournal.com]

After a successful run with 'Hey, Bro!' SHINee's Onew will now transform into a rocker for yet another musical, 'Rock of Ages.'

'Rock of Ages' is a jukebox musical comprising of classic 80s rock hits including Mr. Big's 'To Be with You,' Quiet Riot's 'Cum on Feel the Noize' and Twisted Sister's 'I Wanna Rock.'

Onew was triple casted along with actor-singer Ahn Jaewook and rock band Trax's Jay in the role of Drew who dreams of becoming a big rock star like Stacee Jaxx (to be played by Shin Sungwoo and Jung Chanwoo) but is tied down by his rather dim reality.

CSJH the Grace's Dana and Sunday along with musical actress Moon Hyewon have been casted as Sherrie who leaves her hometown in the hopes of making it big in the city as an actress, but becomes a stripper along the way and of course, falls in love with Drew.

Representative Kim Sunmi from M Musical Company said of the musical, "It was a big hit on Broadway so there is some pressure in premiering it here. But our hope is to contribute to the diversity of the musical genre for the Korean audience."

I think Jonghyun would be perfect in a Michael Jackson musical.

Somehow I find Onew perfectly casted; he obviously enjoys the older (and sometimes cheesy) tunes~
