Same Girl is the seventh studio album by a Korean jazz vocalist, Na Yoon-Sun, released on 17 August 2010 in Germany. The album contains eleven songs by Na Yoon-Sun. The styles of the album are Korean, North/East Asian Traditions. The album is her second release as a leader of ACT Music, after spending a decade with a French band. The materials from sources are as diverse as Randy Newman, Sergio Mendes, and Metallica. She kept the same ensemble as she worked on "Voyage" - guitarist Ulf Wakenius, bassist Lars Danielsson and percussionist Xavier Desandre Navarre. With her talents in treating each syllable in acrobatics and other vocal techniques recorded in "Same Girl" reinforces her reputation.

Na shows her sense of humor in many of the tracks. In her song, "Pancake", she talks about how much she likes to consume her favorite fast foods like ice cream, donuts and milkshake. Her interpretation of Randy Newman's "Same Girl" is a solo performance that carries a genuine emotion. Na arranges a Korean traditional folk song in this album, and create a mass version of Kangwondo Arirang. Then she does again in her next album, Lento, with a title, Arirang, which she performs in a closing ceremony Sochi Winter Olympic in 2014. Na sings in her "Song of No Regrets" with Lars Danielsson's cello. The song "Moondog" by Terry Cox contains Na's kazoo solo, Ulf Wakenius's guitar and Xavier Desandre Navarre's drum. She also shows her scat style in her song, "Breakfast in Bagdhad".
