Prince of Asian fingerstyle guitarist Sungha Jung will be back in town to give an exclusive concert, "2022 Sungha Jung's Music Café [MuCa] Live In Bangkok", at M Theatre, New Phetchaburi Road, on Oct 9 at 6pm.

Presented by Jin Corporation in collaboration with Piccolo Music Entertainment and South Korea's Gorani Studios and Muca, this is another chance to witness the acoustic fingerstyle guitar by the 26-year-old South Korean musician who became a YouTube sensation after his covers of popular tunes, movie themes and classical works went viral since 2006.

Jung released his first album, Perfect Blue, when he was only 14 years. By the age of 20, he had seven studio albums under his belt and had toured in over 20 countries worldwide.

While many have been calling him a guitar prodigy, he prefers to be known simply as a guitarist. Today, his YouTube channel has more than 6.9 million subscribers.

At the same time, his dream to become a professional acoustic fingerstyle guitarist is still firmly ongoing. Apart from playing various cover songs as ear candy on YouTube, he has also impressed fans with the release of his self-produced songs.
