Jeong made her debut in August 2014 as the vocalist of the South Korean girl group Laboum.[5] Aside from her group activities, she has participated in a number of soundtracks for South Korean television series since early in her career. She is an active songwriter and has composed songs for both Laboum and other artists, including the title track of Laboum's 2018 single album Between Us.[5]

In 2016, Jeong was a cast member and contestant on the South Korean television singing competition Girl Spirit.[6]
