This is the third consecutive year that the Korean guitar prodigy has made a performance tour in Vietnam.

Being an excellent representative for the fingerstyle guitar genre, the 20-year-old lad from the Republic of Korea will bring forth a new, young, refined, emotional musical atmosphere with his own compositions and arrangements.

Fingersyle – a new genre of solo guitar music in Vietnam, has been thriving in recent years. One simple way of describing this genre is that with only a single guitar a performer can play as if he is an entire band. Fingerstyle brings about a whole new perspective for the acoustic guitar and is currently drawing attention for the guitar-music genre from our community.

Sungha Jung has collaborated with many famous artist, not only the Republic of Korea but also over the world as well: 2NE1, G-Dragon, Kotaro Oshio, Trace Bundy, Andy McKee, Tommy Emanuel, Jason Mraz and others and had his own tour in many country: France, America, Denmark, Poland, Singapore, Japan, Thailand, China…

Sungha Jung has been known and admired by Vietnamese audiences mainly for his songs on Youtube within 10 years so far. He is also the first foreign fingerstyle guitarist to perform in Vietnam.
