Maybe Happy Ending follows two outdated helper-bots in near-future Seoul as they rediscover companionship, autonomy, and perhaps love. Park and Aronson first premiered the musical in South Korea, where it won numerous awards before making its way to Broadway. This marked the duo鈥檚 Broadway debut, with Park also contributing lyrics and Aronson composing the score.
The poignant and futuristic musical opened November 12, 2024 at the Belasco Theater, directed by Michael Arden. The show was praised for its delicate storytelling, moving themes of obsolescence and intimacy, and the rare sight of a Broadway show that centers Korean culture and language in such an authentic way.
