Why is Jessica Jung famous?
Jung made her debut as a member of Girls’ Generation in 2007. Her debut came after seven years of training with SM Entertainment since they scouted her at the age of 11.
Scheduling conflicts led to her departure from Girls’ Generation in 2014. Two years later, she embarked on a solo career under her new agency Coridel Entertainment. Her debut single, “Fly,” amassed more than two million views within 24 hours of its release.
Jung is also an actor and played the role of Elle Woods in the Korean adaptation of the musical Legally Blonde in 2010. She also participated in the Chinese reality show Sisters Who Make Waves in 2022, winning second place.
Jung has her own fashion label, Blanc & Eclare, which she founded in 2014. She made her debut as an author with the young-adult novel Shine in 2020.
Her younger sister, Krystal Jung, is also an accomplished K-pop idol and K-drama actor.
