Park to Help Produce Musical Hairspray

Comedian Park Kyung-rim will join the musical 'Hairspray' as a producer. She has become a collaborative producer to the production which she watched 15 times on Broadway due to her keen interest in musical production while she studied in the US.

Dubbed the " miracle " of a new style Broadway musical comedy, Hairspray entered Broadway with great fanfare after it premiered in June, 2002 in Seattle.

It received rave reviews since its Broadway debut in August 2002 to grab eight awards at the 2003 Tony's, including Best Musical.

The musical, characterized by the humor and romance of a 1960s Baltimore, is still hot on Broadway.

Park will be involved in the overall production from casting, sponsorship, publicity to general planning.
