Leo and Ken of boy band VIXX were featured as the cover story for the August edition of a local magazine dedicated to musicals.

The versatile artists, both of whom debuted with the K-pop act in 2012, also have careers as musical actors.

Leo is appearing as the Armand Gilot in “Mata Hari,” the love interest of the titular character, and Ken has appeared as Hamlet in the Shakespearean classic that recently wrapped up.

“When I‘m studying for acting, I feel the same way as when I first started training for singing. I have a long way to go, but it’s fun,” Leo told Scene Playbill.

“It‘s hard physically and mentally, but I have to take it. I’ve chosen both a career as an idol singer and as a musical actor,” said Ken.
VIXX recently wrapped up its Japanese tour and is gearing up for tour across Southeast Asia.
