Audio extracts recorded during live concerts have been bundled into a first album entitled "Concerts Parisiens: melodie, lied, opera" released in June 2010. A second album entitled "Live in St Amarin: De Summertime à West Side Story" followed in March 2012. Based on jazz, gospel and Broadway musical theater, it was recorded during a recital given by Mi-kyung in the 2011 edition of the "Festival Jazz Amarinois" in Saint-Amarin, France.

Then in May 2014, Mi-kyung came back to a classical repertoire inspired by her German period and the numerous concerts she had given in Germany. She released a studio album called "Lieder forever: Schubert, Mozart, Schumann, Strauss". She is accompanied on the piano by her friend, the marvelous French-Georgian pianist Olga Bakhutashvili.

A selection of tracks froms her CDs can be listened to from the site page Audio clips. To support Mi-kyung or simply for your own pleasure, you can buy the albums or single tracks on Apple Music, Amazon and others... All the details are here.
