- Maybe Happy Ending
1/4/25 (Sat), Broadway
Korean culture, having triumphed in music (K-Pop), television (Squid Game) and film (Parasite), has now reached Broadway with this oddball musical set in Seoul in the near future. I had no intention of seeing musicals on this trip given the exorbitant prices and way too many disappointments, but the Asian origins proved irresistible, especially after its favorable critical reception. Word of mouth seems to be turning this quiet show into a sleeper hit. A Japanese version played in Tokyo a few years back, and I wish now that I had caught it.
