Young Chang was founded in 1956 by three brothers, Jai-Young Kim, Jai-Chang Kim and Jai-Sup Kim, who started off as distributors for Yamaha pianos in Korea.
In 1964, Young Chang began manufacturing Yamaha brand pianos under license for the domestic Korean market, and, in 1975, Young Chang ended that relationship to focus on its own brand of pianos which were becoming highly regarded all over the world.
Young Chang moved aggressively into piano manufacturing. By the end of the 1970s, it was exporting pianos to the U.S., and also started establishing OEM relationships with other companies. Over the years, it has manufactured pianos for Baldwin (their Wurlitzer line), PianoDisc (Knabe), Steinway (the Essex brand), Schimmel (Fridolan) amongst others. Today, it is owned by Hyundai Development Corp., When Hyundai bough the company they installed as CEO BJ Park who is best-known as the CEO who dramatically improved the quality and fortunes of Hyundai Motors making it one of the most respected car makers in the world. Park immediately hired world renowned American piano designer and former head of design at Baldwin, Del Fandrich to completely redesign and upgrade every piano the company builds.
Young Chang focuses on high quality entry and mid-level pianos, and has reached the Upper Level of Larry Fine's book with its Albert Weber pianos. We believe that these pianos are not only strong competitors at the Consumer-Grade level, but that they compete against a number of the European pianos that Fine ranks as Performance-Grade pianos.
1. Del Fandrich Designs - When American piano designer Del Fandrich was asked to re-design the entire Young Chang piano line it was totally unprecedented for a big company to give a designer carte blanche to do the designs he wanted. His designs created for Young Chang the ability to say designed in the USA.
2. Floating Soundboards - Young Chang/Weber is one of only 2 piano makers today that incorporate this unique design feature which allows the soundboard in the piano's bass area to vibrate more freely and produce more tone.
3. Backed By A Giant Company - Young Chang pianos come from the giant Hyundai development corporation, one of Korea's largest companies providing rock solid warranty support.

We firmly believe that the internet should be available and accessible to anyone, and are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of circumstance and ability.
To fulfill this, we aim to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people with a wide array of disabilities. Complying with those guidelines helps us ensure that the website is accessible to all people: blind people, people with motor impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more.
This website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as accessible as possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that allows persons with specific disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user interface) and design it to their personal needs.
Additionally, the website utilizes an AI-based application that runs in the background and optimizes its accessibility level constantly. This application remediates the website’s HTML, adapts Its functionality and behavior for screen-readers used by the blind users, and for keyboard functions used by individuals with motor impairments.
If you’ve found a malfunction or have ideas for improvement, we’ll be happy to hear from you. You can reach out to the website’s operators by using the following email
Our website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) technique, alongside various different behavioral changes, to ensure blind users visiting with screen-readers are able to read, comprehend, and enjoy the website’s functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader enters your site, they immediately receive a prompt to enter the Screen-Reader Profile so they can browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s how our website covers some of the most important screen-reader requirements, alongside console screenshots of code examples:
Screen-reader optimization: we run a background process that learns the website’s components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even when updating the website. In this process, we provide screen-readers with meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For example, we provide accurate form labels; descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons, search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form inputs; element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogues (popups), and others. Additionally, the background process scans all the website’s images and provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based description as an ALT (alternate text) tag for images that are not described. It will also extract texts that are embedded within the image, using an OCR (optical character recognition) technology. To turn on screen-reader adjustments at any time, users need only to press the Alt+1 keyboard combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic announcements to turn the Screen-reader mode on as soon as they enter the website.
These adjustments are compatible with all popular screen readers, including JAWS and NVDA.
Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also adjusts the website’s HTML, and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the website operable by the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate the website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links using the Enter key, navigate between radio and checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill them in with the Spacebar or Enter key.Additionally, keyboard users will find quick-navigation and content-skip menus, available at any time by clicking Alt+1, or as the first elements of the site while navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, and not allow the focus drift outside it.
Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.
We aim to support the widest array of browsers and assistive technologies as possible, so our users can choose the best fitting tools for them, with as few limitations as possible. Therefore, we have worked very hard to be able to support all major systems that comprise over 95% of the user market share including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft Edge, JAWS and NVDA (screen readers).
Despite our very best efforts to allow anybody to adjust the website to their needs. There may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, are in the process of becoming accessible, or are lacking an adequate technological solution to make them accessible. Still, we are continually improving our accessibility, adding, updating and improving its options and features, and developing and adopting new technologies. All this is meant to reach the optimal level of accessibility, following technological advancements. For any assistance, please reach out to
