His recital career has taken him to such top halls as the Elbphilharmonie in Hamburg and the Konzerthaus in Vienna. An enthusiastic chamber music player, Youn has collaborated with violist Nils Mönkemeyer and clarinetist Sabine Meyer. Youn's recording career began with a 2009 performance of the two Chopin piano concertos. In 2018, he released a recital of music by Schumann, Schubert, and Liszt.
