She released the mini album 《Sonnet Blooms》 in 2014 and drew attention for her vocals with frequent appearances on KBS's 《Immortal Songs》. She also sang for many drama OSTs.

In 2018 she won eight consecutive rounds on MBC's 《King of Mask Singer》, and in 2021 she played Elphaba in the musical 《Wicked》.
