Kim Hyeong-jun, a former member of SS501, revealed that he thought it was him when he received an offer to play the son-in-law in the musical 'My Mom'.
On the 4th, a press call for the musical ‘My Mom’ was held at the Daesung D-Cube Art Center in Guro-gu, Seoul. In attendance were writer Ko Hye-jeong, director Kim Jae-seong, music director Heo Soo-hyun, choreography director Kim Soo-han, and actors Kim Soo-mi, Jeong Kyeong-sun, Kim Seo-ra, Kim Go-eun (star), Hyun Juni, Shin Seo-ok, Kim Hyeong-jun, and Kim Do-hyun.
'My Mother's Mother' is a work about a mother who loves her daughter more than anyone else and a daughter who is not good at expressing her love because she does not understand her mother. The daily life of a mother and daughter is portrayed in a realistic yet detailed manner, reminding us once again of a mother's love, which is easy to forget.
Kim Hyeong-jun plays the role of a husband who loves his daughter Mi-young, but is a son-in-law who is embarrassed by his mother.
On this day, Kim Hyeong-jun said, "Still, that singer has a good voice. He debuted as a singer in 2005 and has been working as a solo artist since 2011. In the meantime, he has done several dynamic or lively musicals. I also received a good opportunity early this year to create this work with my teachers. “I did it,” he said.
He continued, "In some ways, the role of the son-in-law and husband seems boring. When I first received the script, I thought it was me. I wondered how something like this could happen to the point where I thought, 'Did the writer think of me at all?' I enjoyed reading the script and really wanted to try it. “I wanted to do a musical that would show peaceful family love, and it’s nice to have a good opportunity to show my true self,” he added, making everyone laugh.
Meanwhile, the musical ‘My Mom’ will be performed at Daesung D-Cube Arts Center until June 4th.
