He also initiated a new era of collaboration between classical music composers and Korean painters who have exhibited at Buronzu Gallery in Liege, Belgium. In 2022, he collaborated with Korean painter Kang Ji Min on a joint project as a composer, scheduled for display in Belgium in 2024.

Additionally, he fosters connections among artists from various fields to create compelling content through storytelling.

In 2020, he produced two unique projects that combined dance and classical music.

He consistently endeavors to assist artists seeking to connect with the public and provide growth opportunities. He focuses on fostering a new cultural landscape by discovering composers with a new paradigm, possessing independent, creative, and open minds, to seamlessly integrate them with various art forms.
