Antonio recorded this when he was 11 years old.
Whilst performing in Carmen for Opera Australia Summer Season 2020, Antonio was fortunate enough to take vocal instruction during his 4 months in Sydney from Jaewoo Kim, principal tenor. During his lessons Antonio asked Jae to teach him this Korean folk song. He had heard it sung by the Vienna Boys Choir and wanted to learn it. Sadly Covid restrictions meant that Carmen closed early, but Antonio was fortunate enough to have completed 18 out of the 23 scheduled shows.
