IntroductionIntroduction 닫기
The tragedy of a human standing before an unopened door
The three creators who met through the musical Neighborhood—playwright Kang Nam, composer Kim Hyo-eun, and director Lee Junwoo—are set to present a new solo theatre unlike anything seen in traditional theater or musicals at Sync Next 25.
The Door Within the Door is a modern reinterpretation of H.G. Wells' 1906 short story The Door in the Wall. The award-winning duo of Kang Nam and Kim Hyoeun, who swept the 4th Korea Musical Awards with HOPE: The Unread Book and the Unread Life, delve deeper into the human desire caught between dreams and reality. Meanwhile, Lee Junwoo, known for his diverse directorial range spanning classical theater to original musicals such as Red Leaves and Hongryeon, crafts a groundbreaking stage featuring unique techniques and intensely detailed performances.

SynopsisSynopsis 닫기
Amid the media frenzy surrounding the death of the successful politician Wellers, his longtime friend Redmond, whom Wellers visited just before his death, is summoned for police questioning. As the camera's recording button is pressed, Redmond’s testimony begins.
Before the camera, Redmond mimics his late friend, portraying the polished image of a successful politician. Yet, as the recorded footage plays, another Redmond emerges—the one who reveals his true story. Through the confrontation between the "false self" captured on film and the "true self" on stage, the play delves into the conflict between constructed illusions and inner truths.
