Born in South Korea and currently based in Italy, baritone Youngjun Park rose to prominence in 2023 with

his acclaimed portrayal of Amonasro in Aida at the Teatro Filarmonico di Verona, conducted by

Massimiliano Stefanelli in the iconic staging by Franco Zeffirelli. That same year, he sang Enrico Ashton in

Lucia di Lammermoor at the Ópera de Las Palmas alongside Xabier Anduaga and Jessica Pratt, and took

part in the international promotional tour for the 100th Arena di Verona Opera Festival, performing in

Bucharest, Dubai, Paris, Berlin, Tokyo and Seoul.

At the Arena di Verona Opera Festival 2023, he returned to the role of Amonasro, sharing the stage with

Anna Netrebko, Yusif Eyvazov and Anna Pirozzi under the batons of Marco Armiliato and Daniel Oren.In early 2024, he received standing ovations for his powerful performance as Scarpia in Tosca at the

Teatro Mario del Monaco in Treviso. He subsequently triumphed in the title role of Nabucco at the Teatro

Verdi in Trieste, again under Daniel Oren, and appeared as the Duke of Nottingham in Roberto Devereux.

Later in 2024, he performed Amonasro in two productions of Aida at the Arena di Verona—one conducted

by Marco Armiliato and staged by Stefano Poda, and the other in the historic 1913 production—and

appeared as soloist in Carmina Burana at the same festival. He also appeared at the Metropolitan Opera

in New York as cover for Scarpia in Tosca during the autumn season, and performed in gala concerts in

Doha and Abu Dhabi with the Arena di Verona.

In 2025, Park took on major engagements across Europe and Latin America. His appearances included

Gellner in La Wally at the Teatro Filarmonico di Verona, performances at the Teatro Colón in Buenos

Aires, and appearances at the Teatro Verdi in Trieste as Enrico Ashton in Lucia di Lammermoor and in

Rigoletto, under the baton of Daniel Oren. At the Arena di Verona, he performed Amonasro in Aida, the

title role in Nabucco, and appeared as soloist in Carmina Burana. In October he served as cover for the

title role of Rigoletto at the Teatro alla Scala in Milan, and later performed Rigoletto at the Aalto-Theater

Essen.

In 2026, he performed Conte di Luna in Il Trovatore at the Teatro Verdi in Trieste alongside Anna Pirozzi,

Yusif Eyvazov and Daniela Barcellona, conducted by Jordi Bernàcer. Upcoming engagements include

Cavalleria rusticana and Pagliacci at the Teatro Colón in Buenos Aires, as well as Ping in Turandot at the

Metropolitan Opera in New York. He will also return to the Arena di Verona in La Traviata (Giorgio

Germont), Nabucco (title role), and Aida (Amonasro) in productions by Franco Zeffirelli and Stefano Poda.

In October 2026, he will again appear as cover for Scarpia in Tosca at the Metropolitan Opera, and in

December 2026 he will perform Tonio in Pagliacci at the Teatro Mario del Monaco in Treviso.

Previous career highlights include his debut in the title role of Rigoletto at the Teatro Regio di Parma, as

well as appearances in Adriana Lecouvreur, Cavalleria rusticana, Roberto Devereux and Manon Lescaut.
