Nam Hye-seung (Korean남혜승) is a South Korean composer and music director. She is considered one of the best musicians in the country and is a fluent player of multiple musical instruments.[1][2][3] Nam majoring in classical composition at Yonsei University.[4]

Having mastered various genres of content, starting with entertainment in 1989, Nam Hye-seung has become a veteran in the industry. She began her career as an EBS broadcast music writer in 1989 and has since worked on numerous successful projects. Nam Hye-seung served as the music director for hit dramas such as Guardian: The Lonely and Great God, It's Okay to Not Be Okay, Crash Landing on You, and Mr. Sunshine, among others. Throughout her career, she has collaborated with renowned artists such as IU, Heize, EXO's Baekhyun and Chanyeol, Seventeen's Seungkwan, Mamamoo's Wheein, Lee Hi, and many more. With an impressive discography of 77 Korean dramas, Director Nam has established herself as one of the most sought-after composers in the Korean television industry.[5][6]

Career[edit]

In 1989, Nam stepped into the entertainment industry and started working on drama music after she happened to see an advertisement at the EBS education broadcasting station looking for someone to add music effects, so she applied and was accepted.[4][7]

After joining EBS as a broadcast music writer in 1989, Nam worked on comedies and entertainment shows such as MBC's Sunday Night for more than 10 years, but then moved on to the children's program Kiss Kiss because she wanted to compose music. "There was a whole world in 'Kiss Kiss'. Animation, documentaries, dramatization… It was a great study."[4] Her work includes animation, documentaries, sitcoms, and dramas. In particular, she attracted attention for working on polar opposite genres, such as the popular children's works Kobobobo, Pororo, and Special Case Task Force TEN.[8]

Most children's programs copied Disney music and made it appropriate, nowever Nam's music was original. It was from this time that her name became known to broadcasters. She became a drama music director starting with the 2004 MBC series Red Bean Bread.[4]

In 2005, Nam won the Music/Effects Award for her work in MBC at the 17th Korean Broadcasting Producer Awards.[9][10]

Starting from that, numerous hits were born from her hands, such as The Good Wife and Don't Dare to Dream, as well as Nine, I Need Romance (2 and 3), and Discovery of Love.[4]
