Cho Sung-woo is among the finest and most recognizable composers in contemporary Korean cinema and television. Author of soundtracks capable of blending lyricism, tension and narrative elegance, he has built over time an unmistakable musical language, capable of entering into deep harmony with the images and emotions of the characters.

During his career he has signed unforgettable music for films such as “Christmas in August”, “April Snow”, “The Last Princess” and “The Duelist”, up to the most recent works such as “Forbidden Dream”, “A Normal Family” and “Dirty Money”.
