Chunhwi Park is a musical theater composer/lyricist living in Korea and Vancouver. He has been writing music for Musicals, Plays, and other theatrical works for the past 25 years. Chunhwi has also translated over 30 musicals from Broadway and beyond. As a teacher, he taught graduate musical theater writing programs at KNUA (Korean National University of Arts), Choongmoo Musical Academy, and Daegu DIMF Musical Academy for over ten years.

Chunhwi's most recent two musicals, [Darwin Young and the Origin of Evil] and a new adaptation of [Little Women] earned him two consecutive nominations for his music in the Korean Musical Awards in 2020 and 2021.

Chunhwi scored a newly discovered silent movie [Crossroads of Youth] in 2008. It is the earliest surviving film in Korean Film History. [Crossroads of Youth] is performed with a Byunsa, a sitting narrator who dubs all character lines and comments on the action, and a four-instrument live band and two singers who step out of the film to sing on their behalf. It closely mimics the 1930 Korean silent era tradition with a modern musical theater twist. [Crossroads of youth] has become a smash hit in various film festivals and has performed in Lincoln Center(NY), Barbican Center(London), BFI London, London Thames Festival, Mexico, Berlin, Brisbane, Sydney and more. He was also invited by the British Council to participate in the Film music workshop (FAMLAB) hosted by British Film Institute (BFI) in 2016.

In addition to his theater work, Chunhwi was the original music director and producer for the best-selling Korean children's book/DVD Series [English Egg]. It's recorded in New York with Broadway actors.
