He's performed in three London West End seasons, a sell-out run at Sydney Opera House and has been seen live by over 750,000 people. The UK's Guardian Newspaper say he is "one of the most exciting entertainers in Britain." Chris is far too modest to mention it though.

The Manipulator, Hyun Joon Kim

Hailing from Korea, Hyun Joon Kim is regarded as one of the most masterful sleight of hand artists in the world. He has mastered the art of manipulation with extreme discipline and highly skilled technique that leave audiences and fellow magicians alike in awe.
