It has been done.[2]

Fantaga[1] music format in 2008, and in 2022, he was selected as a "Korean classical music pioneer"[8] by the Westminster Conservatory of Music in the United States, and "Song of Waheon" from the chamber music suite <Geojedo suite> was performed at Rider University. There are four composers selected, including South and North Korea.

Isang Yun (contemporary musician), and Dae-Ho Eom (contemporary musician).[8]

"Composer Dae-Ho Eom's new attempt is giving great stimulation to the world music world. The new style he created, '
Fantaga[1]', is a groundbreaking style that every composer should try at least once. In particular, his deep faith and pious spirit are reflected in his music. "- Jeon In-pyeong (Professor Emeritus at Chung-Ang University, President of the Korean Music Critics Association)[9]
“Dae-Ho Eom’s unique creations led him to be selected as a contemporary musician by the Westminster Conservatory in the United States, following composer
Isang Yun."[10]
"Dae-Ho Eom's genius in composition is well known in the United States and Sweden, but in Korea, he is just a trying composer. Dae-Ho Eom is Rilke's 'Autumn Day', which calls for bringing in a little more southern sunlight to fully ripen grapes, or Kim Kwang-gyun's 'Chuil Lyrics', which draws a lonely semicircle beyond the curtain of a slanted landscape and sinks into it. We have passed through the late autumn scenery where ‘(秋日抒情)’ endures. In the early winter, we live warmly in this world with a warm heart."- Genius composer Dae-Ho Eom's 'JESUS CHRIST' composition collection[11]
“His original compositions are extremely intimate, atonal music that excludes too slow or extreme modernity, but uses the theme of tonal music as it progresses." – Jang Seok-yong (Chairman of the Korean Association of Critics)[12]
“Dae-Ho Eom, a modern music composer, created the musical form “
Fantaga[1]" and applied it to his own songs, creating a new wave in the modern music world, instilling aesthetic elements in difficult modern music and creating a gateway to spectacular music leading the 21st century. "- Jeong Soon-young (composer, music critic, winner of the 43rd ‘Best Artist of the Year Award’[13])[14]
“Composer Dae-Ho Eom, who has constantly thought about righteousness and is presenting and perfecting a new paradigm in the domestic composition world by developing a new world of works that reflects the deep inner self of the abyss" – Sunhwa Kim (『Review』 Editor-in-Chief)[2]
