KPOP is an immersive musical with a book by Jason Kim and music and lyrics by Max Vernon and Helen Park. The musical made its world premiere at Ars Nova in New York on September 5th 2017 and ran until October 21st.

The off Broadway production won a Lucille Lortel Award in 2018 for Outstanding Musical and Ashley Park (Mean Girls, Grand Horizons) won Outstanding Lead actress in a musical and Jason Tam (Be More Chill, A Chorus Line) for Outstanding Featured Actor in a Musical.

As a result of the COVID-19 global lockdown enforcements the producers have announced a virtual casting call to find the stars for their upcoming Broadway production.

The producers are searching for talented performers of Asian decent in their 20’s.
