Winterplay has not only earned attention from Korea, but also creating waves in Japan and rest of the world as a first leader of "Jazz Hallyu".[1] Debuting in 2007, Juhan Lee is a producer, songwriter and trumpet player. His latest jazz ballad, “Gganbu (067 & 240)” was inspired by Netflix Drama “Squid Games” featuring the Korean instrument, Haegum.[2] Winterplay was the Music Show Runner for International Jazz Day 2022, which was funded by the City of Seoul, and produced by Loudpigs Music, where he also served as the music producer. In the 90 mins show, Winterplay hosted the show, performed under the band he formed for the International Jazz Day 2022 occasion and directed over 30 jazz musicians in 4 venues in Seoul.[3]
In 2008, Winterplay was charted No. 1 in the jazz section of iTunes, and became the first Asian artist to perform at Billboard Live in Japan.[4] Since his first international debut in Japan in 2009 with his Songs of Colored Love album, he has released in 26 countries worldwide, with an international release showcase in London in 2010. Currently, Winterplay has 2 Gold Records in the category of Jazz in Korea for “Hot Summerplay”, and in Hong Kong for his second album Sunshines.

Music Styleedit
The genre of Winterplay's music is on the borders between jazz, pop, latin, and lounge.[7] Unlike typical jazz songs dependent on piano, the strength of Winterplay's music is the pop feeling, strong melody, and short length without piano.[7] Their jazz style is influenced by Louis Armstrong and it was decided to fuse their love of pop and jazz.[8]
