Onsaemiro, which is also the title of the musical, is a pure Korean word meaning “as it is, without cutting or splitting.” The concept reflects the performance’s theme, which questions whether we might be benignly prejudiced individuals through the school lives of two high school students, Miro and Haru, who come from multicultural families. To quote a line from the work, “If we shake off our prejudices, you and I are not so different after all.”
Miro and Haru, who attend the same high school, both share a love for music. Miro is a talented singer, while Haru has a gift for composing. They also share the commonality of coming from multicultural families: Miro’s mother is Vietnamese, and Haru’s father is American. One day, rumors spread that Miro is receiving an achievement award for the school’s anniversary, leading to the solo part in the choir being handed over from Haru to Miro, which creates a gradual awkwardness between them. Will they be able to restore their friendship? The plot also serves as an awakening journey for the audience, challenging them to confront their own prejudices against multiculturalism.
