After my first vocal cord surgery, my voice soon stopped working again, and I lost hope of being able to sing my old songs. After appearing on JTBC's Sugar Man, while I was trying to recover my voice, I met JOE. On his recommendation, I underwent a second vocal cord surgery, and through subsequent vocal training with him, I became able to sing all my songs again. He helped me recover my voice, and thanks to him, I can now sing much more comfortably than before.

Thanks to training with Vocal Coach JOE, I've not only improved my sound but also gained recognition as a professional vocalist. Since childhood, I’d worked with various vocal teachers, yet they often struggled to teach me, saying my voice was unconventional. Like many, I approached Coach JOE with a mix of hope and skepticism. But after nearly two years of training, I finally found *that sound* I’d been searching for.
As my performance and recording schedules increased, I began our lessons with the goal of rehabilitating my overworked vocal cords. The results were unmistakable—over time, my voice improved to the point that recording engineers and industry professionals were amazed by my progress. I continue to work with Coach JOE and am now happily pursuing my singing career.
Through this journey, I've come to understand why even famous vocalists continue to seek coaching and prioritize vocal care. Among the many coaches I've met, I can confidently say that JOE is truly the best.Kim Hyun Sung

Through vocal coaching with JOE, I experienced a breakthrough in vocal technique issues that had troubled me for many years. The chronic problems that wouldn't improve despite countless hours of practice and effort gradually began to resolve. During this process, I underwent a complete paradigm shift in my understanding of vocal technique, and most importantly, I finally understood the exact causes of my problems. These changes were possible thanks to his deep understanding of vocal technique, precise training methods, and professional approach as a coach. I want to take this opportunity to express my gratitude once again, though saying "thank you" feels far from the exact amount of gratitude. He helped me rediscover my voice and restored my joy in singing.

What truly sets Vocal Coach JOE's lessons apart is his unique approach—he doesn’t just teach theory; instead, he guides students to naturally develop strong vocal production through exercises that focus on the physical sensations of singing. He's incredibly attentive to everything, from vocal health to overall physical condition, and has helped me break down some of my preconceived ideas about the mental approach and mindset needed for singing. Unlike many lessons that only concentrate on technique and overlook musical expression, JOE’s sessions are refreshingly open-minded. He often shares examples from various artists and openly discusses artistic direction and expressive goals that singers can strive toward. This is one of the main reasons I recommend his lessons so highly. If you trust in Coach JOE and calmly follow his training methods, you’ll notice gradual, consistent improvements. With dedicated practice, you’ll see your physicality and sound quality develop significantly in the right direction.

As someone who has been training with Coach JOE, here’s my advice: I’ve been singing for years, eventually earning the title of "singer" and releasing my own album. For over a decade, I placed a lot of emphasis on vocal technique, exploring it deeply on my own, and through trial and error, managed to get good results independently. Because of this, I developed some skepticism about learning vocal technique from others. My own self-study took me in the right direction, but I also simply hadn’t yet met the right teacher.
However, after many years of singing, I ran into unexpected challenges that made it almost impossible to keep singing. I faced a condition that was difficult to diagnose medically, and I found myself seeking help from numerous vocal and voice specialists. I learned from some well-known vocal coaches, but none of them could offer real solutions—only adding to my frustration.
Then, I met Coach JOE. With my prior experiences, I was somewhat skeptical, but his guidance and constructive feedback changed my outlook. In the challenging process of recovering my voice, I realized two things: the difference between “someone who truly knows” and “someone who just seems to know,” and that a teacher needs both “technical skill” and the right “character” to effectively teach.
After working with many vocal specialists, I can confidently say that Coach JOE’s coaching is the real deal. If a student is willing to keep going, he’ll do whatever it takes to help them master solid vocal technique. I truly hope you find a teacher like him on your musical journey and experience the joy of real progress in singing!
Pioneer
The first penguin in this wicked area.
I continue to introduce 21st century vocal training - the latest vocal training methods - to Korea. In collaboration with American vocal coaches who have trained pop stars, I have planned and hosted educational programs that bring high-quality, effective training methods currently used in the global vocal training market, rather than outdated approaches. These programs include workshops, coach classes, and private lessons that introduce previously unknown vocal training methods and theories to singers, vocal professionals, and the general public in Korea.
Explorer
Lifelong learner in Vocal Education.
To provide high-quality vocal training, I have spent the last 15 years studying the latest voice science and vocal training techniques, traveling between the United States and Japan. As the first Korean coach to do so, I have personally traveled throughout the United States to learn directly from world-renowned voice scientists like Ingo Titze, Donald Miller, and Johan Sundberg, receiving professional education in person rather than through online programs. Based on these experiences and research, I provide unique and effective training that cannot be easily replicated by others.
Specialist
Singing Voice Specialistfor Pro.
I provide vocal rehabilitation training for people and singers who have difficulty speaking or singing due to voice problems, helping them return to their daily lives and stages. Even after medical treatment or surgery, there are many cases where new vocal training is necessary due to voice control issues caused by compensatory mechanisms and structural changes in the vocal cords. This rehabilitation is particularly crucial for singers who require extremely precise control. As a Singing Voice Specialist, my training methods have been used for voice rehabilitation in ENT clinics, and I am building a continuous voice care system through collaboration with hospitals.

The Integration of Proven Vocal Coaching Techniques and Modern Voice Science
In the United States, a pioneer in vocal education, Seth Riggs established SLS (Speech Level Singing) 30 years ago, which has become the global standard for vocal training. Particularly around the 2000s, with the advancement of practical voice science, collaboration between skilled vocal coaches and voice scientists began to emerge, leading to even more sophisticated vocal training methods.
Drawing on these new developments, along with my established expertise and experience, I offer vocal training for the 21st century.
