South Korean violinist Ji Young Lim
Q. From what age did you start playing the violin?
A. When I was seven years old, I started playing piano and other instruments just like other children in Korea. Among these, I liked the violin very much because it was small enough to hold and play around. I loved it. I was just happy to play with it. At the age of 11 and 12, I considered to become a professional violinist. I practised seriously and carefully, according to the teacher’s lessons. I have studied with professor Kim, Nam Yun who also thinks that practice is most important and essential for musicians. I think I am quite sincere.
