From those reminded experiences, I hope they find happiness, relief, and even nostalgia. Beyond thinking about the stories from the past, I also hope they can imagine lots of things while and after listening to my performance.” Seokyoung Hong has had several first or second-place finishes at international competitions in Korea, Switzerland, and the United States.
