Singer Bada Cast in Musical ‘Pounds Beauty’

Singer Bada has been cast in the brand new musical ‘Pounds Beauty’. The musical is based on the 2006 film which was based on a Japanese cartoon under the same title. At the time of its release, the film attracted six million movie goers, the most-ever audience for a Korean romantic comedy. The film also made actress Kim Ah-joong into a super star overnight. Bada will take on the role of heroine Han-nah along with musical star Yoon Gong-ju. Bada had previously starred in ‘Notre Dame de Paris’, a hit license musical which was recently staged in Korea. The producers are still searching for an actor to take on the role of the male heroine, who was played by top actor Ju Jin-mo in the film version. Musical ‘Pounds Beauty’ will open at the Chungmu Art Hall on November 27.
