Omg I’m so happy I’m crying…I love seeing him perform.

처음엔 그냥 내가 아는 헤헤강아지인데 지휘자분이 지휘봉 들자마자 바로 집중하는 거 진짜 좋아 pic.twitter.com/2aVQffoQcr

I love how he starts off being a smiley cutie in the beginning, but as soon as the conductor raises his baton, he focuses right away.

이렇게 전신 잡힌 거 너무 좋은데.. 찬영이 지휘자 바로 앞인 것도 기특해죽겠고???? 아침부터 마음이 넘 힘들어………

I love seeing a full shot of him…and how he’s right in front of the conductor too…I’m overwhelmed seeing this this morning…

Netizens that saw the videos were amazed at how talented he was in various fields!

• “If he lived a normal life, he probably would have gone to a really prestigious university in the States, so I feel regretful for no reason. He left his life in the States to come to Korea to pursue music, so I hope things get better for him going forward. I feel like I’m becoming his dad, lol.”
• “Regardless of whether he’s good at it, I think he is a good match for the cello. I think Yoon Sang maybe wanted him to do music too, but was more worried because he said he wanted to be an idol.”
• “He holds the wand in a unique way.”
• “How is this fifteen-year-old looking so professional lol.”
• “What is all this talent? Playing the cello, then swimming, then becoming an idol!”
• “This setting is crazy…and to think he was only 15 in the video. Look at his physique.”
• “I like him the more I see him.”
• “Anton’s unique expressions are so cute. He definitely has the talent in the arts and physical education. When I first saw his performance at KCON, I was a little worried about how he would dance, but I could see he was really improving his dancing skills.”
