Yuri Kwag is a composer who believes music is more than sound—it's a vessel for the unspoken, carrying emotional truth across the boundaries of time and space. Born in Seoul and now based in Los Angeles, she aims to craft scores that exist in the delicate balance between contradictions: intimate yet expansive, playful yet profound.
Her compositions don't impose—they resonate. In a world of paradoxes, Yuri's music embraces life's complex layers, transforming them into something authentically human. Through the whisper of a single note or the sweep of an orchestral movement, she captures what often remains unseen but deeply felt.
Her portfolio spans film, television, theater, and game works, including the feature Fairy (2021) and acclaimed shorts Skin and Blister (2021), Sleep is the Image of Death (2020), and Leaving in Waves (2019). As a collaborator with composer Rob Simonsen, she has contributed to major productions including Deadpool & Wolverine (2024), It Ends With Us (2024), Postcard From Earth (2023), and Good Grief (2023).
Through every note she writes, Yuri’s goal is simple yet ambitious: to guide hearts through the labyrinth of human emotion and, ultimately, to lead them toward love and hope.
