Sungha Jung…this kid can play!!
By Shay on Nov 3rd, 2008First there was funtwo playing “Canon Rock”, then there was the “Hey Jude”-singing baby, Hero. So who’s the next musical prodigy from Korea to achieve international internet fame? Give it up for Sungha Jung, a 12 year-old kid who can really jam on his acoustic guitar.
This kid’s music is stunning. The songs he plays in his videos are long and complex and his fingerstyle of play on some pieces make things even more amazing. No need to say much more…just watch:
“More than Words”:
Pirates of the Caribbean Theme:
“California Dreaming”:
Check out Sungha Jung’s YouTube page. There’s over 125 clips of him rocking out. His videos on MySpace
There are a lot of other prodigies out there worth mentioning. This kid’s style is just one of the coolest.

A great talent this kid, really! I decided to watch him over the years to see how he grows. I guess he has only one direction to go: forward! And with the current visibility, he has a great future to come! Thanks for mentioning my site, by the way!
Hi Ovidiu!! Thanks for stopping by and writing about this kid =) Great site
That Is God Given Talent..I Tried to play guitar as a kid..Instead Im an engineer. Does His Father have a web page set up? Next time me and my wife pass through south korea to see her family I would like to see him Play! I Love It!
Hi Shay,
It’s been so long! How are you? I’ve been quite busy lately and wasn’t able to make a visit to your blog. Back to the topic, Sungha Jung is really a talented kid, I watched several videos in YouTube some time ago and think that he is really awesome.
By the way, happy new year ^^
