Introducing 012 - Park Chan Young | 박찬영
“포근한 이불 속에 머리까지
다 집어 놓고서
사랑하는 그대와
첫눈을 기다릴 거에요”
“Up to the top of my head,
I’ll cozy under a duvet,
With you my beloved dear,
I’ll await the first snow here.”
Name: Park Chan Young | 박찬영

Background: Classically trained as a cellist, Park Chan Young has recorded strings for beloved songs such as IU’s "Winter Sleep" (겨울잠) and "Next Stop" (정거장), for OSTs including Kim Heewon (김희원)’s “Friend”, for drama Snowdrop (성강화), and Jung Seung Hwan (정승환)’s “Belief” for drama Yumi's Cells (유미의 세포들), and has collaborated on stages with artists such as IU, and Henry.
With the cello as his enduring musical axis, as a songwriter in his own right Park Chan Young continues to stitch his musical past and present together with a string that signs each composition under his name.
Traits: He plays the cello, he plays the guitar, he plays the cello like a guitar, he plays the piano, he sings, he writes lyrics, he composes, Park Chan Young is an artist with a style carefully formed through an ever-deepening friendship with music and all its facets. With the gentlest of melodies and the sincerest of words, he writes watercolour music that is sure to clear even the cloudiest of days.
Recent Work: 2023 brought the much anticipated release of Park Chan Young’s first EP Blossoming Love, a collection of five compositions that stay true to their collective title and detail the heart flutters and soft pastel tones of “blossoming love”, available on Spotify.
