In 2014, DSP Media (DSP미디어) launched the survival show "KARA Project" in order to find a new member for the group. Several trainees participated, and she was declared the winner, earning her spot in the group.
She made her debut in August 2014 as the group's main rapper, lead dancer, vocalist and maknae with their 6th EP, "Day & Night".
The group faced several lineup changes, and in January 2016, all members except her ended her contracts with DSP. It implied that KARA had disbanded, but all members released statements saying that the group would just be on hiatus until a new opportunity to reunite appeared.
In June 2022, she reunited with all KARA members for a photoshoot, and the group officially came back in November of that year with the album "Move Again", commemorating their 15th anniversary. They held several fan meetings in Japan and concerts in both Japan and South Korea.
She made her debut as a solo artist in 2023 with the mini-album "Toi Toi Toi".
In September 2024, DSP announced the termination of her contract, and she signed a few days later with SM C&C (에스엠컬처앤콘텐츠).
