His performances have been broadcast in the UK, France, the United States, Japan and Korea, most recently in a live television broadcast of Beethoven’s Emperor Concerto on KBS (Korea).
Born in Seoul, Korea, Yoon spent his formative years in London as a scholar at the Purcell School of Music studying with the late Mme Maria Curcio and Mark Swartzentruber and has earned degrees from the University of Bristol and the Royal Northern College of Music, where he garnered numerous prizes including Sir Charles Halle Scholarship, Sir Barbirolli Prize, Norman George Duo Prize and the Clifton Helliwell Prize for the highest distinction in Postgraduate Diploma and Professional Performance Diploma (PPRNCM).

Further studies followed as a Joel Estes Tate Scholar and Meadows Artistic Scholar under the tutelage of Professor Joaquín Achúcarro at Southern Methodist University in Dallas, USA. During his time in the United States, Yoon was awarded the Von Mickwitz Prize and was subsequently featured in the Meadows Rising Stars Series. He made an appearance at the Meyerson Symphony Center in a televised concert, and performed at the Steinway Hall, Meadows Museum and the Dallas Museum of Art.
A versatile musician with an avid interest in chamber music, Yoon is a founder member of Trio Andante and served as a vocal coach and collaborative pianist at the University of Texas (UTA) and Southern Methodist University as well as the Amalfi Coast Opera Festival in Italy.
