hwangs, you got a new fan 

I'm amazed about your feeling for rhythm, articulation,  accentuation and the appropriate tempo. Then about your cool expressiveness in the slower movements, which is really exceptional. The total lack of mechanical playing and aggressiveness  helps to get a feel of pure joy when listening

Hwangs, I liked this a lot.  Throughout all the movements (except the prelude) you added ornaments that were creative and delightful, always in good taste.  I especially loved your slides in the Bourree.  In the Sarabande, you added a great deal of interest by not making the whole thing legato.  Very interesting phrasing/articulations.  Clear articulation, steady sense of rhythm, very few mistakes for a live performance.  I wish more performers showed your creativeness and originality.

I feel like there were a few tiny places in the prelude where the rhythm was not as tight as it could be, and some of the ornaments in the courante were not as clear as they could have been.  That is my only advice for working on things. 

Great work.
