This content features the live final performance of pianist Lim Yoon-chan, who won the top prize at the Van Cliburn Piano Competition held in Texas, USA, which concluded on the 19th (Korean time). The Cliburn Piano Competition is considered one of the world’s three major piano competitions, along with the Chopin Competition and the Tchaikovsky Competition.

At 18 years old this year, pianist Lim Yoon-chan was the youngest among the final six contestants in the Van Cliburn Piano Competition final round, performing Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 3 and Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 3 in the first and second rounds. This marks the third time a Korean pianist has won an award at this competition, following Son Yeol-eum (2nd place in 2013) and Sunwoo Yekwon (winner in 2017).

LG Uplus customers can watch the first final performance of pianist Lim Yoon-chan for free by selecting the U+Stage menu on U+tv and U+Mobiletv. The second performance will be updated later.
