He's an 11 year old Korean Fingerstyle Guitar Prodigy. I thought I would share some of his videos. He also has a Youtube channel with over 80 videos. Really a talented little kid.

I do not know much about guitar, so I feel I should not be commenting, but I do feel that for someone at his age to play something so pleasing to my ears, is amazing. I am not sure how much stuff he was doing was average or above average or on the prodigy level, but I know its good stuff :).

The kid is definately a prodigy. He's playing stuff by the best fingerstyle guitarist in the world today. When Thomas Leeb came into Korea, he invited the kid to play with him at his show. Some stuff he can't play perfectly, but let's not forget he's only 11 years old, and not only that, he learns most of his music by just watching the greats on youtube and trying to copy them by ear. The few stuff that he's composed himself is not bad either, especially when you consider his age.

Here he is playing Andy Mckee's "Rylynn"
