Chosun University K-Culture Performance and Planning Department Graduation Performance... '12 Angry People'

The Department of K-Culture Performance and Planning at Chosun University announced that under the guidance of Professor Park Yoon-hee, they will present the graduation performance "12 Angry People."

The 2nd graduation performance, held from June 7 to 8 at the Dandelion Small Theater, is expected to be a more meaningful event as students will directly participate in acting, planning, and promotion.

"12 Angry People" depicts a courtroom trial where 12 jurors engage in serious debates about prejudice, preconceptions, and justice during the trial of a boy accused of stabbing his father to death. They clash with each other, raise their voices, and ultimately make a final decision regarding the boy. This decision causes a significant impact on them and the society they belong to, leading the audience on an unexpected journey.

After watching the performance, the audience will act as the 13th juror, judging the boy's guilt or innocence, prompting reflection on prejudice and justice. The play also emphasizes the importance of individual voices and a fair judicial system, delivering a social message.

Director and supervising professor Park Yoon-hee said, "After enduring the long winter sleep of the pandemic and beginning to welcome a new spring, the students will fill the stage with passion and dedication to make the theater bloom." She added, "We ask for much support and affectionate applause."
