200 Pound Beauty musical opens
If you’re a regular reader here, you probably won’t have that much trouble placing this particular famous singer in the lead role of 200 Pound Beauty, the musical edition, which held its “press call” and open rehearsal on November 26.
Song Chang-eui of Golden Bride plays the role originally played by Joo Jin-mo in the film, with Kim Ah-joong’s lead role played by two actresses alternating as the overweight singer with the powerful voice who undergoes plastic surgery to become a kpop success.
It’s Bada! Er, sorry, I mean Choi Sung-hee, since the former SES pop singer recently decided to revert to her real name in her acting career.
Quite a difference between the actresses’ real images (below left) and their fat-suited selves (right), isn’t it? Bada/Choi shares the role with musical actress Yoon Gong-joo.
From the run-through on the 26th (the musical opens to the public on November 27 and runs through next February 1):

firstttttttttttttttttttttttt!!!! that’s seems good ^^
i wanna see it,,,
I was just saying it’d be nice if someone taped the play…
omg they kissed>?!!? no….
I enjoyed the movie, but not enough to see the musical. Why? Because the guy is a jerk. Essentially, he didn’t pay attention to her until she became skinny, which I think sends the message to little Korean boys that it’s alright to judge girls based on physical appearance. I have no problem with plastic surgery or weight loss in order to help bolster a woman’s confidence, but the size of a girl’s butt has nothing to do with her merit, character or value. But in 200 lb Beauty, it definitely seems like the size of her butt determines whether he has genuine interest in her or not.
@Your Average Girl
IMO that’s why they didn’t get together in the end, she realised he only liked her now because she lost the weight and didn’t want anything to do with him romantically.
So is the message you might like the girl after she loses the weight but she’ll go off you for being so shallow?
@Anna – Perhaps the message is “Be careful what you wish for” …..
……(cause it might come true and then you’ll realize that it isn’t as great as you thought it would be, although I guess now you are strikingly beautiful which isn’t all that bad, now is it
)
