In Seoul, two different performances based on the novel 'Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde' are presented simultaneously. The play 'Jekyll and Hyde' is a one-person show focusing on the psychological aspect, with a gender-free casting, and it closely resembles the original novel with a simple stage setup. In contrast, the musical is celebrating its 20th anniversary, offering dramatic music and enriched narratives, including popular numbers like 'This is the Moment'. While the play provides an intense portrayal of inner darkness, the musical presents a spectacle with two female characters and longer run time. Both shows invite the audience to explore the dual nature of humanity.
