Jung Jaeil is a South Korean composer, musician, and music producer whose artistic contribution to the world of film and performing arts has been significant. Known for his versatile approach to music, Jung has crafted scores that range from hauntingly beautiful to strikingly innovative. His work frequently blends traditional orchestral arrangements with electronic elements, showcasing his adeptness in various musical genres.

Jung rose to international prominence with his work on the critically acclaimed movie "Parasite" directed by Bong Joon-ho, which won multiple awards including the Academy Award for Best Picture in 2020. His most recent releases reflect his continued exploration of sound and composition. Works such as "A Prayer," "A Prayer (Bless)," and the "Broker (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)" exhibit his ability to evoke emotion and build narrative through music alone. His other compositions, including "Listen," "Esthesia," "The River," "psalms," "10.1 (strings)," and "memorare," further demonstrate his range and skill as a composer who is capable of commanding a presence in both the visual and auditory domains of the arts. Jung's contribution to music goes beyond entertainment, as it often intertwines with deeper themes and storytelling, a testament to his status as a contemporary maestro.
