In 2010, Hung took on the complete musical creation of the percussion theatre production "Mulan," which received widespread acclaim for its innovative integration of traditional and modern elements. She continued to evolve this work in 2013 with "Mulan - New Edition," achieving a perfect fusion of percussion and Peking Opera. In 2017, this work was performed at the Chekhov International Theatre Festival in Moscow, breaking cultural boundaries and receiving enthusiastic responses.
