Hyunsun Choi as Anna of Cleves
I've met Hyunsun before, as Enid from Legally Blonde and Bridget Sullivan from Lizzie the Musical. Knew that her Cleves will NOT let me down and she indeed was. ๐ฅบโค๏ธ
Just opened my Q&A. Since I already got lots of messages about slime tutorials of Korean Production's SIX, so to clear things up here's my answer.
No. I don't have any bootlegs or audios of the show.
And DO NOT ASK ME to make or share records.
From no on, I won't answer to any questions or messages asking me about bootlegs or audios.
And here's the question everyone wonders about. Will we get any Slime Tutorials of SIX the Musical Korean Production?
My answer is: Probably not.
Here in Korea, the musical production companies are strict about illegal records of the show. I mean, they ARE STRICT, compared to US/UK.
Also there are other reasons. Unlike broadway and west-end, Korean theater audience is mostly local fans. Theater fandom is not that huge, and the social atmosphere about bootlegs/audios are very negative. If you joke about bootlegs to actors at stage door, I'm almost sure that words about you would go around among theater fans within a day. +There's no official stage doors anymore since COVID pandemic in Korea. Just saying.
Yup. So I WON'T SHARE any slime tutorials. Don't ask me.
For those of you who might wonder how I can write down Korean Lyrics of SIX: I've seen the show dozen times, including UK Tour Queens show when they visited Korea. During UK Tour's show, there was a huge screen that provided Korean subtitles. Korean Production's lyrics are not much different from that subtitles. Probably they used same translator. Anyway that's the reason why I can write down the lyrics. Thus, because I already memorized every English lyrics of SIX, it is not that hard for me to remember Korean one. (lol)
Of course there's always exceptions, even in here. (smug face) BUT AGAIN, DON'T ASK ME.
+ For those of you who didn't get her joke here's the background. Ryeowon, one of Korean Katherine Howard, is currently playing the role of pirate Calico Jack(photo from the left) in Korean musical "Pirates" too. She's doing that role with Katherine Howard of SIX at the same time.
In "Pirates", her character Calico Jack got munity by his subordinate named "Howard". So she's making joke about Katherine "Howard"'s name. ๐
๐ Sonnet Son as Aragon / ๐ Su-jeong Pae as Boleyn / ๐ค Garam Park as Seymour / โค๏ธ Hyunsun Choi as Cleves / ๐ Ryeowon Kim as Howard / ๐ Jihee Hong as Parr

Brought some lines and lyrics from Korean Production of SIX. Take a look at how they were translated!
* notes: the lines and lyrics may not be fully accurate, 'cause I wrote them only depending from my memory.
[Ex-wives]
Remember us from PBS/GCSEs?
โถ Remember us from History Special? ์ฐ๋ฆฌ ์ญ์ฌ ์คํ์ ์์ ๋ดค์ง?
(note: History Special is one of the most popular TV show in Korea, broadcasted during 1998-2012. They mada a right localization!)

But I didn't look as good as I did in my pic
Funny how we all discuss that
But never Henry's little-
โถ So he's disappointed with my actual look
Do you think you're the only one who's disappointed?
Your tiny and little-

(OK so Korean Cleves didn't just 'unfriended' but 'blocked' Henryโฆ and she slays ๐คฃ)
[No way]
Well daddy weren't you there
When I gave birth to Mary?
(spoken) Aw, hi baby
Daughters are so easy to forget

(especially loved this one๐ gives bit of K-POP industry vibe)
[Haus of Holbein]
Ignore the fear and you'll be fine

๊ทผ๋ฐ ์๋น ๊ฐ ๊ถ์ ์ ๋๋ด์ฃผ๋ ์ธํด ์๋ฆด ์ก์์ค๊ฑฐ์ผ
(they translated it as 'internship' and I wonder why๐ค Maybe to emphasize how young Howard is?)
[Parr Intro]
Ooh, โIโm Catherine Parr, I draw lines in arbitrary places.โ Blah-blah!
โถ "Hello, I'm Catherine Parr, came to draw lines in your conscience." ZIP!
์๋ ๋ ์บ์๋ฆฐ ํ์ผ ์์ฌ์ ์ ์ ๊ธ๊ฒ ์ด ์ฐ-
(and Ryeowon's Howard was damn cute when she says ZIP!)
[Six]

(Cleves says the word 'Aristic' and 'Fantastic' in English ๐)
โฆand for the last, I bring you how my favorite lyrics from SIX were translated into Korean!
We're one of a kind No category
Too many years Lost in history
We're free to take Our crowning glory
โถ No one can make category on us
Our own history that was forgotten
Taking back my freedom and glory

It's the end of the show, of the histo-remix
We switched up the flow and we changed the prefix
Everybody knows that we used to be six wives
But we wanna say before we drop the curtain
Nothing is for sure, nothing is for certain
All that we know is that we used to be six wives
โถ Our show is about to end re-writing the history
Our own lyrics we changed and singing
Everyone knows we were that six wives
We wanna say before the show ends
Do not be certain for anything you know
We are not that six wives everyone used to know

I know there are lots of negative comments among Korean theater fans, about how poor the Korean translations are. But I did like some parts. I won't say I'm fully satisfied with the translations but some parts were really touching just like the original ones. Hope they make progress in the future. ๐

Yup. So obsessed with Korean SIX all night long and decided to record Korean Production's version of lyrics. L-O-L, I mean, Ha-ha-ha.
Anyway, starting with the MegaSIX!
P.S. My opinion about Korean Lyrics of MegaSIX
: I love how Cleves says 'get down and bow' in historical drama tone.
: It's quite interesting that 'don't lose your head' became 'keep your head'. I mean, Korean lyrics also say about 'head(meori)'. The head joke still works!
