The play tells a touching story about the life of Ly Long Tuong, the last prince of Vietnam's Ly Dynasty, and his descendants, who are currently living in exile in the RoK. Based on a true story, the play's script was written by stage director Sun-Goo Jung. It will be performed by RoK dancer Chun Yoo Oh, Vietnamese dramatic actor Bui Nhu Lai, and German musician Peter Schindler. According to the organizers, the drama dance presents a “new artistic language”, which involves dancing, drama and live music.

The performance is expected to be an intriguing evening at HCM City’s Opera House in District 1 on December 1st, and at the Au Co Art Centre in Hanoi on December 4th.
