Kevin’s musical training started early in Seoul, South Korea, and he went on to study with some of the finest musicians in Canada and the US. In 2002, he was given a full scholarship to pursue his performance degrees at the University of North Texas.

Early in his career, Kevin was invited to perform in the final rounds of many prestigious competitions and festivals in North America and was a First Prize winner of the WRR Chamber Music International Competition. As a chamber musician, he was fully supported by the university to travel and perform at numerous venues in the US and abroad and was invited to the Czech Republic for series of recitals, including the Prague Conservatory of Music and the Janacek Academy.

He has been principal cellist at most of the orchestras that he has worked with, such as the British Columbia Music Educators Association Orchestra (BCMEA), the University of North Texas Symphony & Chamber Orchestra, the Winspear Opera Orchestra, and the Pilgrim Orchestra. He is a current member of the Vancouver Cello Quartet since 2016 and enjoys the eclectic mixture of repertoires to showcase the limitless possibilities of the instrument. Combining his unique talent as both performer and curator, Kevin serves as Artistic Director of the Vancouver Chamber Music Society, in which he has been collaborating with highly accomplished artists from Canada and abroad. With passion and commitment to future generations, Kevin maintains a vibrant cello studio based in North Shore and New Westminster.
