ViolinI come from a musical family, so I fell in love with the violin long before I began playing at the age of 6. My mom gave me my first violin lessons, and I was fortunate to have many wonderful teachers throughout my life who inspired me to be the violinist I am today. I played my first wedding while in high school and continued to gain wedding experience as a regular call for many wedding bands around Georgia.
Every wedding I play makes me fall in love with my job even more. I’ve gotten to know my beautiful state of Georgia by playing weddings everywhere from Atlanta, to the Blue Ridge mountains, the low country, and the coasts. I love everything that makes a wedding come together, like a beautiful venue, small details like flowers and decorations, and the positive energy from guests. I love that my music is a meaningful addition to one of the most important days of a couple’s life. I hope that this all comes across to my clients when they book me for their big day.
Fun facts about me:
My name is pronounced Hee-jung. I was born in South Korea and came to the U.S. when I was 6.
My husband, Eric, and I have three cats.
My favorite musical experiences have been recording with Baby Rose and Raiche, playing a few Candlelight Concerts, and participating in masterclasses with Midori Goto and Augustin Hadelich.

Cello
I picked up a cello for the first time when I was 16, and I was immediately certain that I wanted to perform for the rest of my life. The only thing left to figure out was what kind of performing I would do. I played my first wedding my senior year of high school, and continued playing dozens of weddings a year throughout college. I had always enjoyed providing music for a couple’s big day, but things really changed for me when I married my wife, JoAnna, in 2018. From that day on, every wedding transformed from being an enjoyable gig into a reminder of the love I felt on my wedding day.
My hope is that the couples that hire Pearlnote feel that difference; your wedding day is not simply a gig for us, it’s our chance to help a couple celebrate the love that we have experienced.
Fun facts about me:
My favorite musical experiences are an appearance on Tiny Desk, recording for artists like Baby Rose and Faye Webster, working on music for Halle Berry’s movie Bruised, and playing in pit orchestras for musicals around Georgia.
