Actors Yoo Seung-ho and Sohn Ho-jun return to the stage for "Killing Caesar," a play adapted by playwright Oh Se-hyeok and directed by Kim Jung, featuring a unique twist on Shakespeare's "Julius Caesar." Both actors faced criticism in their previous theatrical endeavor, "Angels in America," but are drawn back by the learning experience and camaraderie found in theater. Yoo, inexperienced and battling stage fright initially, found himself longing for the stage despite past defeats. The new play changes the assassination focus to include political strife post-Caesar's murder, highlighting Brutus' idealism. The actors' passion and bond drive their re-engagement in theater, hoping for a better audience reception this time.
