Former idol singer Kim Jun-su has been praised for his performance in musical "Death Note."


A report Wednesday said Kim, 28, from three-member boy band "JYJ," had taken a "successful step" in playing the difficult role of "L," one of the show's major characters.



"With his unique husky voice and skills to adapt it in interpreting songs and depicting chemistry with other characters, Kim highlighted his performance in the musical," the report said.

The show started on Saturday at the Seongnam Arts Center Opera House and audiences have been impressed with Kim's delicacy in portraying L. Some reports said he even controlled his "toes" in depicting L, a genius detective who tries to catch Yagami Raito, who kills people using a "death note."


Kim debuted in 2004 in five-member boy band "TVXQ" (which went two-member in 2010). He has performed in several musicals, including "Dracula," "December," "Elizabeth," "Mozart," and concerts.


진화해온 데스노트...'L' 김준수 화룡점정 찍어

뮤지컬 배우이자 가수 김준수가 뮤지컬 “데쓰노트”를 통해 극찬을 받았다.

천재탐정 “L”을 연기한 김준수에 대해 국내 언론사들은 “쉽지 않은 캐릭터를 훌륭하게 소화했다,” “허스키하면서도 한이 서린듯한 음색으로 곡을 해석하고 표현했다,” “상대 배우와의 조화, 연기력까지 무대에서 압도적인 존재감을 드러냈다”등의 평을 내렸다.

뮤지컬 팬들 사이에서는 김준수가 데쓰노트에서 “발가락까지 연기를 한다”고 설명한 만큼 그의 섬세함에 감탄했다고 알려지고 있다.

뮤지컬 “모차르트,” “엘리사벳,” “드라큐라”등에 출연한 김준수는 현재 아이돌 그룹 JYJ의 멤버로도 활동중이다.
