Wang made her debut as Cynthia Wang at the age of 13 in 1999, starring in her first television advertisement. Subsequently, she hosted several television shows and appeared in music videos and television commercials.
In 2005, she became part of Taiwanese girl group Yummy, which disbanded one year later. On 17 July 2009, Wang released her first album, entitled Copenhagen's Fairy Tales (哥本哈根的童话).
Wang rose to fame, especially in Singapore, after starring in MediaCorp Channel 8 dramas Devotion and Joys of Life in 2011 and 2012 respectively. She was nominated as Best Female Character during the Star Awards 2012, and won the online polls for the Best Overseas Artiste category in the same year.

In 2013, she made her movie debut as the female lead in “Lian Hun – Kua Hai Che Ping” and took on the leading role in popular Taiwanese idol drama series IUUI, officially making her mark as one of top female actresses to watch. It was also then when she changed her name to Chloe Wang in order to boost her love life and career.[2]
