In 2025–26, I spent a year studying abroad at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music (SCM), following a successful audition for the RNCM’s study abroad programme. The opportunity allowed me to experience a different musical and cultural environment while developing my work as a singer.
During my time in Sydney, I studied with Simon Lobelson and worked closely with pianist Eun-Jung Byun. A particular focus of my year was the study of Korean Art Song, allowing me to explore a repertoire and musical tradition that has become an increasingly important part of my artistic interests.
I wanted my third-year recital to reflect the experience of living and studying in Australia, rather than simply presenting another recital programme. Alongside Korean repertoire, I included A Dream of Death by David Paterson, a work by an Aboriginal Australian composer, connecting the programme with the culture and musical heritage I encountered during my time there.
At the heart of the recital was 십자가 (The Cross) by Jung YoungJu, my favourite Korean Art Song. Its exploration of responsibility, duty and sacrifice provided a deeply personal contrast to the Australian repertoire, bringing together two cultures that had shaped my musical journey during the year.

My first experience in a recording studio was in August 2022 when I was 17 years old. I spent a wonderful day with producer Sean Hargreaves in his studio. It was a fantastic experience and I can't wait to get another opportunity to record more songs. Thanks Sean!
