Two performances based on true stories are getting attention in Korea. One is the musical 'Ogige Fun Gals', showcasing the journey of elderly Korean women learning to read and write, finally expressing their life through poetry. Based on a documentary and essay, the musical celebrates the joy these women find in education.
The other is the play 'Anna X', inspired by Anna Sorokin's infamous scam. It explores her deception as a fake heiress in New York and the societal fascination with social media identities. Both performances dive into themes of authenticity and the impact of real-life narratives.
