Ticket reservations for the 10th anniversary performance of the musical ‘Elisabeth’, which suffered measles due to the “Jade Plate” incident that shook the musical world, are poor.

Tickets for the 10th anniversary performance of the musical ‘Elisabeth’ started on the 14th. As a result of checking the tickets for the musical at Interpark Melon on the morning of the 18th, there are still tickets for all performances from the 25th of next month to the 8th of September.

Only some performances were close to being sold out, but even this is a result of the ‘Kim Junsu effect’. The episode in which Kim Junsu appeared sold out quickly. However, the episode that Junsu Kim is missing is still available for purchase at any time.

Recently, on Instagram, Ock Joo-hyun encouraged the sale of tickets for ‘Elisabeth’, saying, “It will be more intense than the musical ‘Rebecca’, but I will try (ticketing) today.” However, ‘Elisabeth’ has a lot of empty seats and has established itself as a performance that can be seen at any time.

The reason ‘Elisabeth’ pre-order situation is attracting attention is because it is a work at the center of the so-called ‘Jade plate incident’.

On the 13th of last month, when Ock Joo-hyun and Lee Ji-hye were double casted as the lead actors for the 10th anniversary performance of ‘Elisabeth’, suspicions were raised that Ock Joo-hyun’s personal connections worked. Afterwards, musical actor Kim Ho-young sparked a controversy by posting on social networking service (SNS), “Asari-pan is a thing of the past.

Later, when Ock Joo-hyun sued Kim Ho-young for defamation, the ‘jade plate’ situation spread, and after the first-generation musical actors made a statement, the situation grew out of control. Separately from the controversy, Ock Joo-hyun’s suspicions of her abuse were further raised, and in the end, Ock Joo-hyun issued an apology to her and canceled her accusation.

Is it because of the ‘jade plate’ situation? Attention is focused on whether ‘Elisabeth’, who has a large number of empty seats, can successfully finish the meaningful 10th anniversary performance. With about a month left until the performance, attention is focused on whether ‘Elisabeth’ will be able to return the hearts of musical fans.
