A fierce, unpredictable brain fight begins again. Musical 'Death Note' (Producer Shin Chun-soo, Produced by Audie Company), which is adapted from a popular cartoon of the same name and fascinated the world with overwhelming narratives and strong characters, is returning with a new cast in two years. 'Des Note' will be performed at the D-Cube Link Art Center in seven months from October 21 to May 10 next year after a week of previews from October 14th.
Since its Korean premiere in 2015, 'Des Note" has been produced by the Audie Company, which has built a unique status in the Korean musical world in 2022 and has driven artistry and box office success, and has introduced a new production. It reinforced the character's narrative and introduced a super-large LED video panel on the three sides of the stage to maximize visual immersion with a visual beauty that transcends time and space, completing a more sophisticated stage aesthetic. As a result, it was praised as "the most stylish and sensational production", and not only sold out all the tickets for the extended performance, but also sold out all the encore performances in 2023, breaking the Korean musical industry's box office myth and creating a "death note syndrome".
The musical 'Death Note', which returned after two years, predicted a fresh thrill with a large number of new casts combined with solid skills and personality. Cho Hyung-kyun, Kim Min-seok, and Lim Kyu-hyung were cast as Raito Yagami, a genius brain who accidentally picks up 'Death Note' to punish criminals and realizes justice.

Cho Hyung-kyun, who has overwhelmed the stage with his strong presence in big works such as musicals 'Hedwig', 'Hadestown', and 'Cyrano', attempts a new transformation into Yagami Raito. Singer-songwriter and vocalist of the group Melomance, Kim Min-seok won the 9th Korea Musical Awards for Best New Artist upon his debut through the musical 'Hadestown' in 2024.
Lim Kyu-hyung, who was named in another new cast, played the role of Evan Hanson in the 2024 musical `Dear Evan Hanson' and instantly created the `Life Character' despite being his first major role in the theater with cool singing, appealing acting, and expressive power.

Kim Sung-kyu, Sandeul, and Tang Jun-sang were selected as L, the world's best detective who hides his identity and penetrates the essence of the case with his genius reasoning.
Kim Sung-kyu, who was consistently mentioned on the virtual casting list with a high synchro rate with L, clearly imprinted his presence as a musical actor by convincingly portraying the emotional lines of the characters in a number of works such as musicals 'Gwanghwamun Sonata', 'Red Book', and 'King' Boots'. Nong-ik will naturally digest the extraordinary and unique L's charms like personal colors through stage experience, while releasing L, who has cool and sharp insight but is reckless like a child, in a three-dimensional way to capture the audience's eyes and emotions at the same time.
Sandeul, who first entered the musical world in 2012 with 'Brother Was Brave' and then worked in a number of musical works such as 'Three Musketeers' and 'Next to Normal' and has already established himself as a 'Trusting Actor', has been named another Elle. Sandeul, who is considered an actor who provides immersion with delicate character interpretation, unique acting, and B1A4's main vocal skills, is expected to prove his value once again by convincingly unraveling L's inner anguish and complex emotions with strong energy and delicate expression of emotions.
Tang Jun-sang, a welcome face who returned to the stage after a long time, will be on stage as L. Debuting in the musical Billy Elliot, he was greatly loved for appearing as a child actor in masterpieces such as 'Elizabeth', 'Mozart', 'Les Miserables', 'Kingkibbutz'. Since then, he has drawn the trajectory of growth that builds a wide range of acting spectrum across genres such as dramas and movies, and he won the role of El proudly as he was praised for his outstanding skills at the audition. As an actor, he is named in the musical 'Death Note', making him look forward to a new leap forward.
