= Ahn Ri-hwan (14), the son of former soccer player Ahn Jung-hwan, will perform on the Carnegie Hall stage as the youngest trumpet player.
On the 7th, Ahn Jung-hwan’s wife, Lee Hye-won, posted a picture of An Ri-hwan on her Instagram and said, “I started liking the trumpet since I was in the 4th grade of elementary school. I wanted to study, but when I went to Singapore, I entered the orchestra alone, and when I came back to Korea, I prepared alone and went to the competition and won the prize.”
Then, he said, “I still want to major, but my dad still says NO,” and “I know the heart of parents who want to live comfortably, but I understand too much, my dad understands, and my child understands, and I say, ‘I don’t know, Lee Hwan! Let’s just do it, let’s do what we want and live,’ so we prepared and went to the competition, and then we received the award in a flash,” said the news of receiving the award at the New York International Music Competition.
Lee Hye-won said, “Eventually, a day like this will come,” adding, “I got to perform at the Winners recital, Carnegie Hall in the United States.” She continued, “I have a new feeling and a stage that even my child wants to stand on, tomorrow evening, Anne Jr. will finally play at Carnegie Hall,” she announced.
In addition, Lee Hye-won said, “It is a part that makes my mother more anxious about being the youngest, but when will I experience this in my life?” At the same time, she added, “Only at the concert tomorrow at 8 o’clock, I will carefully talk with the heart of the youngest trumpet player (I hope not to make a mistake).”
Meanwhile, Lee Hye-won, a former Miss Korea, married Ahn Jung-hwan in 2001 and had a daughter, An Ri-won, in 2004, and a son, An Ri-hwan, in 2008, respectively.
