I have stayed in Korea for around two months since December, for the production of Elisabeth’s costumes. I initially did not intend to stay for so long as the production for Mozart’s was around a month.
The most troublesome matter was that there are many musicals requesting for the production of costumes by the factory since January and February. Thus resulting in production of 3-4 costumes concurrently and was worried if it the dateline can be met. Additionally of the off-days for new year and lunar new year, can we make it? I was very worried with regards to this. Though we are able to make it for the trial performance on the 8th of February, the actual finishing date was on the 12th.
Though many audiences have seen these costumes before, there should be thoughts of “I wish to see it again”, it is like an addictive work, never tired of it even if to watch as many times. I shall do a brief introduction to the costumes.
Firstly, it is the coat for Tod.
The three Tod have different accessories on it and the designs for the material and collar were different.
(photo shown is Ryu Jung Han’s coat)

I wish to sew the inner lining with handsome feathers and hope to show off the inner linings of this coat with some coat-opening and flying-alike actions. Thus I suggested to the director.
This action was indeed added on the new stage but as (actor) is at the inner stage thus it is not seen clearly. TT
But the whole action looks great, really suave!
Next, is the spider-webbed blazer that appeared on stage many times.

Using soft leather, together with the sponsored designer’s forte in knitting and embroidery, the collar and hem were lined with chiffon, making the material to sashay.
This is a bulgarian-style coat and looks like a refreshing outfit. The buttons were not sewn on the sleeves yet.

This sexy black shirt with beads embroidery and the leather material used for the seams and hem.

This is Junsu’s shirt. The joint-clothings in front is slightly translucent and it is really sexy seeing it from the back!!!
Though the sexy and dangerous Tod first appeared in a coat, it is not entirely impossible to see the sexy back~ therefore everyone please wait till the moment when the coat is taken off and indulged in the staring of the back. (laughs)
The Elisabeth in Korea welcomed it’s first stage on the 9th. In order to try my very best to make it on time, there wasn’t any time for photo taking. Thus was not able to take the photo of the 1st session’s Mr. Song Chang Ui and 2nd session’s Mr. Ryu Jung Han, indeed quite regrettable. T T
Sitting in the audience on the first day, overseeing everything on stage, I was moved and speechless that night.
Finally finished everything on the 12th and it is also Junsu’s first performance. As there was no seats allocated for staffs, I watched it from the backstage. It was rather interesting to see them wearing their costumes then, there seems to be no time for rest for them.
This is Junsu with wings spreaded out!!!!!

Especially handsome~
For Tod, he changed his hair colour and even applied black nail polish.

Wow…..speechless!
TOD!!!
u r so GREAT!! n i love d 1st pic ^^
wow that is an amazing costume! I really hope this comes out on dvd or that there are more videos. >__<
if I had one wish it would to go see this.
The first one is very extravagance and teh 2nd one looks girlish.
Look at him spread his wings!
the costume is gorgeous 0___0 i think they require a lot of work
the first pic is screaming
“BITCH, I´M FABULOUS”
LMAO!!!
…..AND I’M PROUD OF THAT!”
I would love to see him in that blue coat. A high collar always makes his jaw so lickable.
Me too! I can imagine him looking very regal in that outfit.
His costumes are all gorgeous! I didn’t think anything could top the Mozart outfit 😀 I think the designers outdid themselves(look to the fine model they had to work with) 😀
the costumes are fabulous!! seriously elizabeth seems to be an extremely extravagant production! and i’m sure junsu’s gonna looks super hot in the costumes! the costume in the third pic is the one he wore for the premier right?
p/s i love the fact that junsu seems to be youngest wherever he goes!lol!<3
absolutely love the first costume, sooo gorgeous. emk please come out with a dvd for Elizabeth, i really want to see it.
woahh..amazing costume
The first pic… *drooling*
He looks like a different person, it’s not Xiah Junsu here, he looked like a dark angel ^^ and he looks skinnier, i hope he is in good shape n health, go Junsu ^^ you are so cool
i love junsu hair^^
he looks so handsome!
Junsu you are FIERCE! look at him still giving that Death look as he poses. only the last pic our dear Junsu’s smile comes out. 😀 the costumes are exquisite, i especially love the violet-blue one with high collar+ribbony embroidery.. ^^
it looks like in anime d.n. angel…..when Niwa Daisuke become Dark Mousy
in that anime niwa is a cute little boy but when he transform into death he became stronger and mystery
I love d.n. angel!! and Junsu looks so so so good … yummy I hope he keeps this hair color for awhile.
his costumes are amazing. i love them and it makes me really even more want to see it live!
i need a dvd of junsu’s musical….
please heavens, hear me!!!!!!!!
He is so skinny that I can see his chest bone. Poor boy, actually his normal weight is ok for him, but his lovely cheek made him looks chubby. I can’t deny that when he lose some weight, he looks very great and sexy. However, I’m worried that he might be sick because of his working hard together with weight control. But he is Kim Junsu, whatever he did, he would do it the best. I will support you for what ever you do!!!
First costume is wow wow I want to see him perform in that
Junsu’s costumes are SPECTACULAR! Bravo vvvv!! to the seamstress.
I love, love the colors. (Seriously I would BUY the third jacket. I love the layers and layers of flowing fabric,)
What is really interesting is that I thought Junsu said that the 3 TODS will EACH have different costumes!
None of the three TODS will have the same set of costumes! They’ll each wear their own unique set of costumes for their performances. So this will be completely different from Mozart where all the Mozarts wore the same color jacket and hairstyle.
The genius of this is that.. depending on the night you attend the show each performance will be a different feast for the senses both visually and vocally. So for those who can afford it… they may attend the show three different nights and each time they would have a completely different experience.. Same musical score yet potentially three very different performances.
This also means that the show could potentially be a MEGA Cash Cow in terms of ticket sales.. But of course we already know Junsu’s performances are already sold out…. 🙂
the costumes remind me of cabaret show ! wkwkwk
Junsu is wonderful! The wings…. wow!
Look a Black Angel! So beautiful and so misterious homme fatal!
Ooooohhhh!!!! O.o
hi there sexy #u#
omo omooooo omoo oomo ommmmmmoooooooooo ommmo @_______@
kekekekeke someone is literally hyperventilating X )
His costumes are amazing looking!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I really wish I could see this play live!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
great costume complimenting Junsu’s superb performance:)*wish can watch his musical theatre too*
that is a great outfit!
What xiahtod ??? Means ??
The first pic is amazing wings i wanna fly too
“Tod” is German for “death”. So XiahTod is “Junsu as Death.”
first of all…im in love with second costume, the blue one…its sooo beautiful *-* also the first one, well actually all of them are amazing xD
and im also amazed by Su pics…its awesome to see the difference betwen XiahTod and the real Junsu…. Su in this pics looks so sweet and cute, i love his blondie hair so much ❤
Wowww….the first one is so beautiful…^O^
JS always look good with that costumes
The Costumes of Xiahtod are awesome, especially the first one. It looks like he has the real wings.
COOL. Thanks!
Yes Su looks charismatic in anything! But the last part wasn’t put in here! She’s a Japanese stylist who said junsu’s way of talking is very cute, like how the comedian sekine-san impersonates him^^
I would totally wear those. Junsu looks sexy in that pic with him in the outfit.
My baby TodSu superb glow now, imagine he fly to the sky with his magnificance black wing spread open. If i live in South Korea, every month my salary will be waste for JYJ, watch Elizabth musical & the Day movie
Speechless 😐
