Bio
Jem (aka Jennylyn) Chung is a professional singer - crossover/pop-opera style. She is also a voice teacher, music activity specialist/coach, curvemodel, content creator/influencer, ebook author, jewelry designer and entrepreneur. Jem has a bachelors degree in business & music (Long Island University Post) + a masters degree in music/voice (California Baptist University).
In 2010 Jem opened her little voice studio in Orange County, California. For over 10 years, Chung Voice Studio successfully trained hundreds of amateur and professional singers. Life-coaching and music healing was interweaved into the daily practices of the studio, which caused singers to thrive.
Her professional singing work includes church soloist/cantor and choir section leader at Christ Church Presbyterian, Irvine & Community Church Congregational, Corona Del Mar. She has sung for several opera companies: San Diego Opera, Pacific Opera Project, Riverside Lyric Opera, Pacific Lyric Opera and International Opera Institute. Jem has sung in worldclass venues such as, The White House, Crystal/Christ Cathedral, Dodger Stadium & Irvine Amphitheater. Jem created female retro-pop/jazz group "The Pinups," which was tremendous fun.
In 2024 Jem worked as an Activities & Music Specialist for Atria Senior Living, further developing her understanding of music's life-giving and healing effects. Jem takes a nonconventional approach to senior health & wellness, involving music healing practices + the best of modern medicine.
Between 2017-2025 Jem [mostly] took a break from her musical endeavors. She spent years roadtripping through the USA and finding herself. Jem bartended for world-class chefs/venues, including Tom Colicchio's Small Batch (Long Island), The Smyth Hotel (Tribeca NYC), Cecconi's (NYC) and The Ned Nomad (NYC), where she partied with celebs and befriended bartender baddies. Jem worked mostly as lead bartender/bar manager. Her final hospitality job in 2025, Vintage Vegas Lounge (Las Vegas), was a chance to finish this epic adventure on a high-note! After several ego deaths and more than one dark night of the soul, she found the treasure within. And all this would prepare her for all the amazing things ahead...
Finally feeling ready, she returned to her music career full-time in early 2026. And Jemsong Co was official. Jemsong provides life-changing coaching, learning materials & musical things/jewelry for creative teens, adults and seniors. Music, bodylove & joy are the central theme at Jemsong.
Jem was born and raised in Orange County, California, and then spent the majority of her adult life in New York, where she considers home. She currently resides in Las Vegas, Nevada.
