Summary
A stranded aviator meets a mysterious prince from another planet, whose journeys among adults reveal lessons about love, loneliness, responsibility, and what truly matters.
Origin & Development
2018, book and lyrics by Seong Jae-hyun, music by Damiro, produced by HJ Culture, premiered at Chungmu Art Center Black in Seoul. Developed as a small-cast, music-driven piece centered on the relationship between the Pilot and the Prince, combining a chamber score, hand-drawn visual motifs, and text-based storytelling. Received strong audience response for its emotional fidelity to the original novel and has since become one of HJ Culture’s steady repertory titles.
Partial Synopsis
After crash-landing in the desert, a weary aviator meets a mysterious boy from a distant asteroid, B612. Through stories of his rose, the fox, and the strange adults he met on other planets, the Prince teaches the Pilot that “what is essential is invisible to the eye.” The musical follows their brief friendship and inevitable parting, blending narration and song to explore memory, loss, and the rediscovery of childlike wonder.
