Biography[]

Nicole Jung was born in Los Angeles, California and raised in Glendale. In February 2006, Nicole left the United States to South Korea to become a singer. She signed with DSP Entertainment and debuted in 2007 with KARA as a vocalist, rapper, and the maknae, or youngest. When member Sung Hee withdrew from the group, Jung's role in the group changed. She was no longer the maknae which went to Jiyoung, and she became a lead vocalist.

She was featured on Sunha's first album Fahrenheit in the song "String", and she wrote the rap lyrics for "Rock U" and also came up with the "Yo Jump" segment for the song's choreography. Jung also joined Star Golden Bell, hosting the segment "Level With Me (Season 2)" in which the guests have to guess a term or title from her clues; the challenge comes due to her comparative lack of skill and experience with the Korean language. Jung also sang a duet called "Happy And" with Noel member Kang Kyoon Seong. She was a member of the project group Dazzling Red.
