...There’s a sense of depression in Korea,” Koh says. “Everybody is thinking about unification and the Korean pain.” Koh has tried to contribute his share by performing in North Korea. To his dismay, a scheduled performance was cancelled after the country conducted its nuclear test. But Koh has no plans of giving up his efforts, treating this subject with the same persistence that he dedicates to music and science. “As a Korean cellist, I will use my music as a weapon to promote peace...
