Guitarist and vocalist Yoo Hyun Sang and keyboardist Lee Yoo Jeong perform together as a music duo based in Jeju. The two first met as band members in 2023,

where they developed their musical chemistry, and later began performing under the name KITA & OLGEN after collaborating on original songs.

Centered on acoustic guitar and keyboard, their music blends folk-inspired sounds with a range of tones, expressing thoughts and emotions discovered in everyday life with sincerity

and restraint. Their songwriting is shaped by a habit of closely observing ordinary days and drawing stories from within those moments. Rooted in Jeju,

they continue to reflect the people and experiences of the island in their music while expanding their activities through live performances and recording projects.

She began her musical journey by learning the cello from her mother, a cellist, and was deeply drawn to the process of making music after watching Yo-Yo Ma’s Inspired by Bach project at the age of eleven. After moving to Vienna for her studies, she set personal goals to grow from a performer into a musician, and ultimately into a more thoughtful human being, choosing conducting as a way to understand music beyond the level of individual performance. While a performer focuses on their own part, she sees the conductor as someone who shapes the overall flow of the orchestra and defines where the music is heading. Spending seventeen years in Austria led her to understand music as something inseparable from everyday life, a perspective that continues to influence her interpretations and working approach. She places greater importance on communication than on interpretation, focusing on sharing the direction and purpose of the music with the musicians. Her debut at the Golden Hall of the Musikverein in Vienna, conducting Ravel’s La Valse, marked a turning point when she realized she could tell her own story through music. She is currently working with the Jeju Philharmonic Orchestra to build a distinctive sound and a strong sense of ensemble.

They first built their experience in hospitality while working together at a pub restaurant in the United Kingdom, then spent several years traveling and living across Europe and Asia. After briefly returning to Canada during the pandemic, they chose to begin a new chapter of life in Jeju and opened Doughboy in Gujwa in 2023. Their pizzas are made with naturally fermented dough instead of commercial yeast, and they focus on preparing ingredients and processes in house. They now live in Jeju with their three Jindo dogs while running the restaurant and building their daily life on the island.
