A magneto-optical storage medium includes: a reproduction magnetic layer exhibiting in-plane magnetization at room temperature and changing to perpendicular magnetization at a critical temperature or higher; first and second in-plane magnetized layers with Curie temperatures in a proximity of the critical temperature and exhibiting mutually opposite magnetic polarities; and a recording magnetic layer fabricated from a perpendicularly magnetized film, the reproduction magnetic layer, the first and second in-plane magnetized layers, and the recording magnetic layer being sequentially deposited, wherein the reproduction magnetic layer is exchange-coupled with the first and second in-plane magnetized layers at least at room temperature.
