Improvisation and medley.
While I can accommodate various genres of music, I would say those two things - improvisation and medley - are at the core of my piano playing. You can expect seamless transitions from one song to the other - one Adele song to the next, a Harry Potter soundtrack to a Star Wars theme - and you can expect me to really pay attention to the vibe of the audience.
Also, while I have a set list to give me general guidelines for the event, I do like to be flexible with the songs. I could play different songs if necessary, or I could even improvise a new melody.
With over 15 years of dedicated piano playing - from churches to weddings, from birthday parties to jazz bars - I am a seasoned musician with a profound love for creating captivating melodies and harmonies. Whether I am improvising over a tune, or playing in a band setting, my goal is always to build an enjoyable atmosphere for everyone.
I have experience with a wide range of genres, from wedding songs to Contemporary Christian Music (CCM), from pop songs to jazz tunes, from K-pop to soundtracks. By infusing my own style into different genres, I can make each music a unique experience.
I do have a keyboard - a Yamaha CK88 - if there is no piano/keyboard available at the venue. However, unless it is a relatively small event, please have a sound system/PA readily available.

- Disney/Pixar songs (including, but not limited to, Mulan, Frozen, Aladdin, Moana)
- Various pop songs (Both 21st and 20th-century pop music are welcome! However, I do know 2000s/2010s music a bit more than 70s-90s, but I do know the main ones!)
- Film soundtracks
- K-pop (I grew up in Korea till I was 11!)
- J-pop (especially Yoasobi & Yonezu Kenshi)
- Jazz standards
- Contemporary Christian music
- New Age (such as Yiruma's 'Maybe' and 'River Flows in You')
- Game soundtracks
I would say my style comes from a mix of film soundtrack, contemporary Christian music, New Age, and jazz. One of the first pieces of music that I fell in love with was Hedwig's Theme by John Williams, and ever since then, my interests have broadened to many different genres of music.
