Amusing, but not a must

The show was mildly enjoyable. The actors will bring a smile to your face. But this is just an average show and certainly not a "must".

A highlight of Seoul

The best way that I can describe the show is a live version of Fawlty Towers. Very funny and entertaining from start to finish. The energy from the cast was fantastic and there was no language barrier at all.
