Barbara Quintiliani as Elvira, Young-Bok Kim as Silva, and Eduardo Villa as Ernani in Opera Boston's staging of "Ernani." (Michael j. lutch) 
        As  Don Ruy Gomez de Silva
with Opera Boston May, 2008

Young-Bok Kim played Silva not as the usual villain but as a man of noble dignity. Kim has that rare power to make an audience come to him. "Infelice! E tuo credevi" was most memorable, the statement of a man who, while no longer young, still has his pride.
Wayman Chin  OPERA NEWS 5/2/2008


.
"The main directorial novelty - making "Infelice" an interior monologue, as everyone around Silva froze - proved felicitous, especially since Young-Bok Kim offered an acting performance: the bass had considered stance, gait, gesture, and facial expression, listened to his colleagues' words, and phrased his own music with commendable artistry in a flowing, pleasantly vibratoed basso cantante."
By DAVID SHENGOLD 05/15/2008

"Though not of super-human proportions, the solid, resonant bass of Young-Bok Kim was ideally suited to the role of Silva. His acting was fine as well, and he made a believable, multi-dimensional character out of this operatic heavy."

"Young-Bok Kim was a capable Silva..."
By Jeremy Eichler Boston Globe May 3, 2008

"Young-Bok Kim has a very fine bass voice... I enjoyed his portrayal of the aged Silva.  His credits include La Boh
ème, I Masnadieri, Lakmé, The Magic Flute, Barber of Seville, Madama Butterfly, Marriage of Figaro, Aida, Lucia di Lammermoor, Turandot, Zaza, and Guglielmo Ratcliff. "
