In the fall of 2026, Ms. Jun made her highly anticipated house debut with Opera Orlando in the title role of Madama Butterfly at Steinmetz Hall. Her portrayal of Cio-Cio-San earned critical acclaim, with BroadwayWorld praising her vocal command and technique, noting that she "hit every note with mastery and ease... moving effortlessly through the score, maintaining both power and control across her entire range." Looking ahead to April 2027, she will make her role debut as Mimì in La Bohème with the International Opera Institute in Las Vegas.

Her extensive repertoire encompasses iconic roles across the Puccini, Verdi, Bizet, and Mozart canons. Notable performances include Micaëla (Carmen), Suor Angelica (Suor Angelica), Liù (Turandot), Amelia (Un ballo in maschera), Donna Anna (Don Giovanni), Musetta (La Bohème), Nedda (Pagliacci), Leïla (Les Pêcheurs de perles), and Cunegonde (Candide). Acclaimed for her "effortless vocal agility paired with a commanding stage presence," she continues to captivate audiences across major classical venues.

Ms. Jun holds a Doctor of Musical Arts (D.M.A.) degree from Rutgers University, a Professional Studies Diploma from the Mannes School of Music, and both Master of Music and Bachelor of Music degrees from Yonsei University in Seoul, South Korea.
