Hi, After watching the Agneatha TV programme (ABBA) a couple of nights ago I was looking at seeing if I could do an acoustic accompaniment to 'Winner Takes it All' which I think is an amazing song. Doing a search on youtube I came across this chap. Many of you may know of him already, but he is amazing. From South Korea he was about 16/17 when this video was made. And looking at his other videos (he's made 3 cds already) here is a Beatles medley which I think was made when he was 13 ish. Apparently to start with he didn't read tab or anything; just taught himself by listening and watching youtube. Amazing (helped by fingers about twice my length and flexibility). Keep trying ...... FFJ

Truly a prodigious talent indeed however I'm not keen on the harsh sound he produces on some of his videos etc. Having said that the sound on these two selections are good particularly the first one which is more natural sounding - I know, I'm beginning to sound like Keith!!! Thanks for posting Cheers Phil

I have watched a fair few of his videos on youtube,i think he is great Would pay to see him live but that aint gonna happen me thinks....isn't it South Korea where they all get brainwashed and the only channels on their TV's are to do with their own government and whats happening in their own country and don't know a great deal about whats happening elsewhere? Maybe its his way to escape this crazy shit who knows - still credit where credits due, he's certainly got a talent

My main instrument is: probably needing new strings

But can he sing? And think of how good he'll be when he stops biting his nails...
I know, I'm just insanely jealous... Thank goodness he's not as handsome as wot I is...
