Julian Kim continued his portrayal of Belcore in L’elisir d’amore with a performance in Parma, featuring the same production seen a week earlier in Modena. Alongside his strong, light baritone voice and engaging stage presence, critics highlighted his clear diction—particularly noting his precise and expressive pronunciation of the Italian 'R,' affectionately described as the 'R of Parma.' His attention to linguistic detail and musical phrasing once again distinguished his interpretation, bringing both vocal and dramatic flair to the role.
