My dream is to become a professional acoustic fingerstyle guitarist. I had been watching my dad play the guitar for awhile before I finally jumped on it myself two years ago. I just turned eleven in September, 2007.

Now Sunha Jung has alot of videos online and they are all pretty amazing. But the one below is a rendention of the song that was completely composed by him. The song is called "Hazy Sunshine". The video shows his impressive guitart abilities in regards to style and technique. You won't believe your eyes or you ears. Enjoy:
