A little synopsis on 1 hour 20 minutes JUMP show. The story set in an average Korean home, featuring an unusual and dramatically agile Korean family. The grandfather, drunken uncle, father, mother, daughter and the visitor all are martial arts experts, possessing championship level of Taekwondo, Taekkyun and gymnastics skills. The plot thickens when two burglars break into the house in the middle of night..
We were thoroughly entertained throughout the show. It was full of sense of humour, yet at the meantime we were astonished with the performers' amazing acrobatics and martial arts stunts. Watch each of the performers portraying their distinctive roles creatively, with the chipping of some romance values in between the actions and comedy to touch our heart.
During our show, a few lucky visitors were called to the stage to challenge the martial arts master! Should we call it a lucky, or fiery experience? Experience JUMP show yourself via Trazy.com to find out more!
In the end of the show, we were honoured to get the signature from all the amazing performers and have a photo shooting session with them! It was a night to remember for us.
JUMP show not only left a deep impression to us but also to others as well:
The Evening Standard - "Did i give it 5 stars? make that 50!"
The Guardian - "Don't go to the cinema, don't stay in and watch TV, GO AND SEE JUMP!"
NY1 News - "Martial Arts Mayhem! A family comedy for people of all ages!"
I love your article and the photos, especially the shot of the T-shirts.
