context_page_description: Jun Sung Ahn or Ahn Jun-sung, better known by his stage name Jun Curry Ahn, is a Korean-American musician, YouTube video producer and member of BgA. He is a classically trained violinist who is known for his 2012 violin and dance cover performance of Psy's Gangnam Style on his YouTube channel and other K-pop and pop music covers.
context_section_description: On May 13, he and BGA members, YouTuber Ryan Higa, musician David Choi, filmmaker Philip Wang and actor Justin Chon, released a parody K-pop song and music video "Dong Saya Dae", which recorded a million views the first day of its release.  In the video, his persona was "Jeungri", an "aspiring YouTuber and actual K-pop star".
  On June 25, at KCON NY, he performed K-pop covers on the Prudential Center stage as an opening for popular idol acts, including Mamamoo, Eric Nam, Ailee, Day6 and BTS.  Fuse's Jeff Benjamin said, "The crowd particularly enjoyed his cover of BTS' 'Save Me,' that saw Ahn dancing a bit during the breakdown." Benjamin said he shared the praise he received from BTS on a Twitter post, "Rap Monster just came up to me and said my performance was amazing and that the BTS members have seen my videos. I'M DEAD."
  On July 30, he performed BTS' "Save Me" at KCON LA's pre-show at the Staples Center before larger acts I.O.I, DEAN, Amber, GFriend, Block B, Turbo, and SHINee, and held a "meet-and-greet" at the convention. On August 4, 2016, while reporting chart news, Billboard's Trevor Anderson mentioned his performance at KCON LA and his nearly 1 million YouTube subscribers.  Anderson accounted his Twitter posting of the popular cover of BTS' "Butterfly" for boosting the song to a re-entry on the Billboard Twitter Top Tracks Chart at Number 2, along with a cover by singer Lucia.
  On September 2, he participated with eleven other star YouTubers in the YouTube FanFest in Seoul.
