He's at least 13 in all of his videos.
He's not that young AND this shit is entirely possible with parents pushing for it. He's only a prodigy if he somehow shows some miraculous talent with such little effort AND can go far with it.

@dayingyang0 um no. Sungha has plenty of friends, fyi. And honestly, he's only obligated to practice an hour or two a day and professional guitarists who have less work than he does (i.e he has personal concerts, national tours, etc, etc) can practice up to several times that amount daily. Plus, Sungha started playing on his own- his mother/grandmother even disapproved of his constant playing initially, so it'd be a stretch his family pushed the guitar on him.

He will be playing canon in no time.

Is it really a prodigy when he's asian?
Seems like that should disqualify them.
Didn't somebody say his face his so flat because his mother hits it with a bible if he stops practicing his guitar?
I'm pretty sure I've seen kids of around that age who displayed superior technical skill and who did it playing songs they wrote themselves. Still, he played that perfectly and it sounded beautiful on that guitar.
Asians are not big on a well-rounded education. When is the last time you met an Asian student that was a whiz at Art History? Or Roman engineering?
You know, I don't post in here very often but I feel compelled after reading your shitty comment. You just can't be happy with anything can you? If you review his You Tube videos he starts out pretty damn young.
You are never happy with yourself and you can't just cut this kid some slack and be happy for him. he certainly seems happy enough and is obviously very talented being happy at the same time.
Your shitting attitude towards everything is going to ruin your life. You are going to wake up one day and be 50 years old and will have bitched about every conceivable thing on earth with nothing to show for it. Go get laid or whack off...whatever works and makes you shut the fuck up.
There are better ways to seek attention than on an internet forum.

Its technically proficient I'll give it that but it lacks something
He is technically very proficient, but he does look like a robot and emotionless in almost all his videos. You can attribute that to his young age.
What he lacks is showmanship. But he will acquire that with age and experience given time.
There are a few videos on his account where he plays live, but he never seem able to put emotion or energy in the music or the crowd. This contrasts to more experienced guitarists. Here's an example by Dadi and Lalanne:

Six years old and writing amazingly beautiful songsI think he was around 10-11 when that song was posted and I haven't seen anyone that age writing their own music, let alone play as fluently as he does. I guess it's possible though, what's impressive is he has like 375 songs on YT..
