On May 2, the first regional 『JUMP』 theater opened in Busan Haeundae, allowing tourists to enjoy the internationally acclaimed musical, 『JUMP』.

The musical 『JUMP』 features Korea’s traditional martial arts of Taekwondo and Taekkyeon along with drunken boxing, Wushu, and other Asian martial arts in a fast paced and comic show. The musical has been receiving wide acclaim, completing 300 performances in 16 countries worldwide including Israel, England, India, Macao, Hong Kong, Spain, the United States and more. 

Busan’s 『JUMP』 theater is located in Haeundae, on the 2nd floor basement of the Grand Hotel. This hotel is famous for greeting guests such as the then coach of the Korean soccer team, Guus Hiddink, and Korea’s former president, Roh Moo-Hyun. After 『JUMP』 entered the Broadway scene in September 2007, organizers decided to set its stage one floor closer to the audience in order to truly show off the performers’ talents. 

This year then, Busan will not only be inviting tourists to its beautiful natural landscapes, but will also be offering a lively stage of Asian martial arts all rolled up in a comic Korean musical.
