Before being cast by Core Contents Media, she started appearing in music videos like SS501's "Unlock", SG Wannabe's "Smooth Break-Up", and FT Island's "Heaven".

On June 14, 2011, Core Contents Media announced that Hyomin would take over leadership as T-ara's 3rd leader for their comeback album, John Travolta Wannabe, and Japanese promotions. She later passed on her leadership to fellow member, Soyeon.[2]
In November 2009, Hyomin was cast in the musical production of "I Really Really Like You",[3] an adaption of the hit drama "Love Truly". Fellow member Boram was cast in the same musical in December 2010 alongside her father Jeon YoungRok.[4]
She starred in the drama, My Girlfriend is a Nine-Tailed Fox as Ban Seon Nyuh.[5]
Hyomin will make her big screen debut in a horror film, Gisaeng Ryung, playing the role of a bright and outgoing high school student named ‘Yurin’.[6]
