[edit] Music

Music from Stephy is always teen-pop style when she was in the Cookies. EMI wanted a drastic change to more likely a mature look and gave her the song of Walkin' Aoyama which is a fresh light jazz bossanova. However, the other songs from the album Coloring Stephy were similar to her music style. But the general perceived the album Coloring Stephy greatly. The album was certified Gold by IFPI Hong Kong.

Her second solo album was Fantasy. The album had a total of five editions. One was deluxe edition which contains a DVD featured her music videos. The only difference of the other four was the cover of the album. The color of the four covers were red, yellow, blue and green which were four different themes for photoshoots.

Her third album is Dating Stephy. The album also features different covers and a special edition was released three months later of the original release. The album also sold well as her previous two. There was no official announcement of the certification as Gold Label Entertainment Ltd and EMI Music Hong Kong did not participate in IFPI Hong Kong. But there was once announced by the newspapers that Dating Stephy has sold over 30,000 in one month and it was at least Gold certified.

Her latest album is titled Stephilosophy. Some songs from this album were included in her recent concert.

In 2007 , she performed at the S.U.C.C.E.S.S. Charity Gala at Vancouver with many other artists.

Stephy performed her first headline solo concert, called Stephy, See Thru Live 2007. It was held December 7-9, 2007 at the newly built Star Hall in Hong Kong.
