On March 16 KST,  Jessi label P NATION revealed Jessi will transform as an actress on TV Chosun's upcoming drama 'Somehow Family'. 'Somehow Family' is a comedy-drama that revolves around a family that runs a shared house. She will portray a character that resembles her charismatic and blunt personality. Jessi had attended high school with Tiffany Young, Jessica Jung and solo singer Stephanie. She passed the audition of SM Entertainment with her classmates. However, she did not choose to join the company due to the difference in music style. In 2003, at the age of 15, she auditioned for Doremi media and moved to Korea shortly thereafter. She released the first single album "Get Up" in 2005 and was included in the album "Testimony" by hip hop group Uptown in 2006. Her second single, "The Rebirth", was released in 2009. After this release, she gave up music and left Korea to return to the US.
