Recently the solar photospheric abundances of C, N and O have been significantly revised downward as a consequence of 3D hydrodynamical solar model atmosphere, non-LTE line formation, and improved atomic/molecular data. While this new solar chemical composition solves many long-standing problems in astrophysics such as the apparent high metallicity of the Sun relative to the current-day solar neighbourhood, it wrecks havoc with standard solar interior models as judged by helioseismology. In this review I will describe the background of this solar model problem, the new 3D solar abundance analysis, and possible solutions to the discrepancy.
