That Way, We, [Daejeon]

# Performance Introduction "The Tale of Yi Saeng and Choi Rang" from Kim Sisup's "New Tales of the Golden Turtle," a Joseon dynasty literati classic and essential text for the college entrance exam literature curriculum, is a musical that reinterprets this classic tale in a modern context while expressing the sentiment of traditional Korean music through contemporary sensibility, combining artistic merit with educational value. # Synopsis Choi Rang is at a beautiful age full of dreams and curiosity. Cherished by loving parents in a wealthy and happy home, she has always strived to be a good daughter. But when did it start? Was it from laughing along with her friends' love stories? A sudden wind of excitement has blown into her heart, and while unfamiliar, it doesn't feel wrong. She wants to love too. Not the free love she's always received, but her very first love as her own person! If only she could, she would pour out her love without regret. And she would protect that love forever and be happy for life! Life is as hard as frozen ground, but I live as who I am today. Yi Saeng, living for today's happiness. Yi Saeng, born into a poor family despite his scholarly knowledge. He lives for his father's unfulfilled dreams, but this isn't the life he wants. Yet how can he betray his parents' expectations? Why wouldn't a man have interest in women—the family's primary goal is my success. Love before that doesn't make sense. Yet today, when everything seems adequate, something feels strange in my heart. When these two so different people meet and believe they've found a strong and perfect love, trials come their way...
