Gummy debuted in 2003 with the album Like Them. Her title track Memory Loss (기억상실) brought her success and recognition and led Gummy to win the Bonsang at the 19th Golden Disk Awards. The same year, Gummy earned the Mobile Popularity Award for Memory Loss at the 2004 Mnet Km Music Festival.

She released her fourth album titled Comfort on March 12, 2008, which marked her first released in three years. The lead single I'm Sorry (미안해요) features T.O.P from Big Bang. A week after its release, the song peaked within the top five spots on various digital charts.

On October 15, 2011, the MV for her remake of "I'm Sorry" feat. TOP was released.

2013 marked the tenth anniversary for Gummy and she celebrated with a fan meeting. She then released her OST for the drama, That Winter, the Wind Blows entitled "Snow Flower".

Gummy also released her second Japanese album, Fate(s). She also had a duet with Daesung from BIGBANG. Two music videos were released for the lead single of the album, "Shinjiteru (Believe)".
