Career[]
2009–2010: Career beginnings[]
Lizzy served as Son Dam-bi's backup dancer in 2009. She was first hinted to be joining After School when she joined the members on stage to perform a cover of Fin.K.L.'s "To My Boyfriend" at their first fan meeting event in 2010, while donning a mask to keep her identity a secret. Lizzy made her official debut as a member of After School when they released their third single "Bang!" on March 25, 2010. She was the youngest member of the group until E-Young joined the group in December 2010.[7] In June 2010, Lizzy and her fellow After School members Raina and Nana formed a sub-unit named Orange Caramel and released their first mini-album featuring the lead single "Magic Girl".
2011–2017: Television roles and solo debut[]
In 2011, Lizzy was briefly a cast member of the SBS variety show, Running Man. That same year, she made her acting debut as a supporting character on MBC's sitcom, All My Love.[citation needed] Her role in Running Man was often edited out, and she eventually left to focus on All My Love.[8] In November 2012, Lizzy was cast in MBC's weekend drama Rascal Sons, where she had a more significant role.[9]
In December 2012, Lizzy and indie rapper Andup released a collaborative single, "Cosmetic", for their single album Cupcake Project.[10] In the same month, Lizzy joined Sistar's Bora, 4Minute's Gayoon, Secret's Sunhwa and Kara's Jiyoung to form the project girl group Mystic White for the 2012 SBS Gayo Daejun. They performed their single "Mermaid Princess" on the show, and the song's profits were donated to people in need.[11]
In July 2013, Lizzy made a cameo appearance in a Japanese horror drama Evil Spirit Ward, playing the role of a Korean foreign student named Tehi.[12] In 2014, she played a hair stylist named Hyeni in the film Momo Salon. The film consisted of six ten-minute episodes, and was released on Naver TV Cast on September 2.[13]
In December 2014, Lizzy was cast as a member of the second season of Jeong Hyeong-don and Defconn's show, Hitmaker.[14] Lizzy, G.NA, 4Minute's Kwon So-hyun and Kara's Heo Young-ji became a girl group called Chamsonyeo (참소녀) for the show.[15] The show began airing on January 16, 2015. She also had a supporting role in the film Love Forecast, which was released on January 15.[16] That same month, Lizzy replaced Kim Sung-eun as a co-MC of the food variety show, Tasty Road.[17]
On January 23, 2015, Lizzy debuted as a solo singer with the trot song "Not An Easy Girl" (쉬운 여자 아니에요).[18] The music video used footage from the 1961 film adaptation of Chunhyangga, with Lizzy playing the protagonist.[19] On February 11, she released a duet song, "Goodbye PMS", with comedian Park Myung-soo.[20] The song was written by Duble Sidekick, who said PMS (which usually means premenstrual syndrome) refers to "a monster that creates all the worries and stress suffered by a high school girl."[21] Lizzy also had a supporting role in MBC's drama Angry Mom, which aired from March to May.[22][23]
In 2017, she joined as Main MC on the first season of My Daughter's Men, being the only woman in the cast.[24][25]
