For the 214th episode of Curtain Call, we are joined by Kai, a musical actor in his 16th year. Kai majored in vocal music at Seoul National University and worked as a popera singer before making his debut as a musical actor, where he has starred in numerous hit productions. He delivered a passionate performance as Javert in the recently concluded musical Les Miserables and is now preparing for the first-ever solo world tour by a Korean musical actor. In today's Curtain Call, along with behind-the-scenes stories from *Les Miserables*, we looked back on Kai's stage career, which has spanned various genres from classical music to popera and musicals, and discussed his upcoming world tour. We will also enjoy "Where in the World" from the musical *Phantom*, Tosti's "From the Light of Dawn," and "Oh God" from the musical *Rebecca*, sung in German. ♬ From the Musical *Phantom*, "Where" ♬ Tosti, "The dawn is from the light" (L'alba separa dalla luce l'ombra) ♬ From the Musical *Rebecca*, "God, what do you say?"
