The musical 'Caminito', based on Na Sang-cheon's novel 'A Wonderful Escape', concluded its open rehearsal to great success, raising expectations for its official opening.

'Caminito' held its open rehearsal on September 19 at Baekam Art Hall in Gangnam-gu, Seoul. The second performance was attended by over 800 audience members who filled the seats.

The open rehearsal went a step beyond the showcase where major numbers were first revealed, blending songs, acting, and direction to bring the story of the original novel to life on stage as a single production.

On that day's stage, characters faced wounds they had tried hard to hide and found healing through one another in a delicate portrayal. The actors' passionate performances fully embodying their characters, combined with numbers that stirred emotions, offered the audience a warm time of healing. Tears of emotion welled up throughout the auditorium as viewers deeply resonated with the work's message of healing and transformation.

Following the performance, praise from the audience continued to pour in. Audience members gave high marks, calling it "a story that gives courage to move forward," "a musical that teenagers and young adults contemplating life's direction must see," and "a work showing the path of the heart everyone must walk at least once."

Interest is also hot in Spain. Local media and radio programs have spotlighted the production and its creation process. Beyond Korea, it has captured attention even in the birthplace of the Santiago pilgrimage route, building anticipation for the official performances.

'Caminito' is a musical based on Na Sang-cheon's novel 'A Wonderful Escape'. Na Sang-cheon is active as both a K-pop planner and novelist. The story follows four protagonists with distinct backgrounds: Chef Kim's, aspiring singer-songwriter Dorothy, YouTuber Roger, and young man Jun-sang. The work depicts their journey walking the same path for 33 days, facing the wounds they each fled from, and undergoing transformation.

Meanwhile, 'Caminito' is accelerating production with the goal of officially opening in April 2027.
