Bariton, 31 oed, De Korea
Cefais fy ngeni yn ninas Busan a graddiais o Brifysgol Sejong yn Seoul. Parhaodd fy addysg yn Hanofer, ac yno graddiais gyda gradd Meistr mewn opera a chanu. Rydw i hefyd wedi cymryd rhan mewn dosbarthiadau meistr gyda Brigitte Fassbaender, Barbara Frittoli, Y Fonesig Kiri Te Kanawa, Leo Nucci, Dimitri Platanias a Roman Trekel.
Rydw i wedi ennill y wobr gyntaf yng Nghystadleuaeth Ryngwladol Iris Adami Carradetti yn yr Eidal (2018), Cystadleuaeth Ryngwladol Hariclea Darclee yn Rwmania (2015), a Chystadleuaeth Cerddoriaeth Ryngwladol Osaka (2012). Mae’r gwyliau a’r theatrau rydw i wedi perfformio ynddynt yn cynnwys Verbier, Leipzig, Hanofer, Kiel, Osnabrück, Bregenz a Bielefeld.
Mae fy repertoire yn cynnwys Graf Dominik (Arabella), Cyfarwyddwr (Les mamelles de Tirésias), Falke (Die Fledermaus), Demetrius (A Midsummer Night's Dream), Ford (Falstaff), Marcello (La bohème) a’r brif rôl yn Don Giovanni.
Y llynedd, ymddangosais am y tro cyntaf yn y brif rôl yn Rigoletto yng Ng诺yl Verbier ac fel Alberich (Siegfried) yn y Staatstheater Oldenburg. Yn ystod tymor 2018-2019, rydw i’n perfformio Monterone (Rigoletto), hefyd yn Oldenburg.
Mae fy mhrofiadau mewn cyngherddau’n cynnwys Gurre Lieder gan Schoenberg yn Oldenburg a Bielefeld yn 2018.
Pan fyddaf yn ymlacio, byddaf yn hoffi gwrando ar gerddoriaeth, gwylio ffilmiau neu sglefrio llinell – roeddwn i’n arfer gwneud hyn yn Korea pan oeddwn i yn fy arddegau, ac mae’r ymarfer corff yn dal yn bwysig iawn ar gyfer fy iechyd a’m ffitrwydd.
