Yoon Ji-sung plays dual roles in *Portrait of a Boy*—a 16th-century boy named Jacopo and a modern art dealer named Nicola—in the original musical at TOM Theater 2 from July 28.
Yoon Ji-sung debuted as a singer and actor in 2017 with Wanna One. Now he's taking the lead in original musical Portrait of a Boy (소년의 초상), stepping into two characters separated by centuries. Red and Blue released his character poster as Jacopo on June 25.
The musical follows the restoration of a lost work by painter Marcello called Portrait of a Baron. A modern restorer traces unfamiliar signatures and layers of overpainting to uncover the life of a female artist hidden inside a 1530 Venetian portrait. Yoon embodies the free-spirited boy Jacopo and the contemporary art dealer Nicola, moving between eras to anchor the narrative.
His stage work began in 2019 with 그날들. Since then he's appeared in 귀환, Something Rotten!, and 해피 오! 해피. Last year the BL drama 천둥구름 비바람 marked his first time in the genre since debut (he'd also appeared in 아듀 솔로). This April he rejoined Wanna One as leader on Mnet's WANNA ONE GO: Back to Base.
Portrait of a Boy runs July 28 through October 18 at TOM Theater 2 in Daehak-ro.
