After the success in Fiji, the Kyrgyz broadcaster decided to go even bigger for the 9th edition in Taipei in hopes to bring Kyrgyzstan into the top 5 for the first time, and internally selected Jeedesh, one of the biggest popstars in Central Asia, with her song "Sen" to go to Taipei. This all went to plan in the end - as Kyrgyzstan finished in 5th place with 101 points, only beaten by Tajikistan, Thailand, Bhutan and South Korea.

Own Asiavision Song Contest 10
Kyrgyzstan participated in the 10th edition, hosted in Busan in South Korea, and for this announced Saykal Sadıbakasova as the Kyrgyz representative with her song "Meni Aldaba". The song was accused of plagiarism by some Kazakh media, which was also picked up by the Asian media, although the Kyrgyz broadcaster proved these claims wrong by claiming that, whilst the song was composed by a Kazakh/Russian/Kyrgyz team, the song was an original piece which picked up on some of the music trends popular in Kyrgyzstan thank to Kazakh music. The money and effort put into the entry eventually payed off, as Kyrgyzstan finished in 3rd place, bringing Kyrgyzstan their first ever top 3 placing.

Own Asiavision Song Contest 11
After the successes of the past 3 editions, KRTK teamed up with TUMAR TV in order to pick a high quality song for the 11th edition hosted in Doha. KRTK and TUMAR announced Style Mix as the Kyrgyz representatives with the song "Kulup koyçu". This was immediately followed by angry reactions by the Kyrgyz public on social media, with one Facebook user claiming that (translated from Russian) "KRKT and the Kyrgyz government have been so scared for the past few years that we will win and have to host the contest, so they sending a mediocre song to the Festival to make sure Kyrgyzstan will fail and have to take part in the semi final from now on... this edition I will be supporting Uzbekistan instead...". Despite the backlash from the Kyrgyz public, the broadcaster defended their choice later in the day. Unfortunately, Style Mix came in 21st place, which to Kyrgyzstan is seen as shameful, and "harmful to the promotion of our country".
