About
Suzy was born on October 10, 1994, in Gwangju, South Korea. She attended Seoul Performing Arts High School. Prior to her debut as a singer, she was an online store model. In 2009, she auditioned for the Mnet program, "Super Star K", passing through the preliminary round, but was eventually eliminated. Her participation gained the attention of Park Jin Young and became a trainee under JYP Entertainment. Her trainee period lasted 10 months, shorter than average idols. A year later, Suzy formed a girl group, temporarily titled JYP Sisters, along with Fei (페이) and Meng Jia. The girls began their promotional activities in China as a promotional group for Samsung China and launched a song for a commercial called "Love Again" for the Samsung Beat Festival. The music video made it possible for the auditions to insert a fourth member to be opened, causing Min (민) to enter the group, thus forming Miss A.

In October of 2010, Suzy became the host of MBC Show! "Music Core" along with Choi Min Ho and Onew from SHINee, and Park Ji Yeon from T-ara. Suzy later presented other shows like "Inkigayo" and "M! Countdown". Since then, Suzy continues to present many events, from music shows to important awards ceremonies.

In addition to her group activities with Miss A, Suzy also ventured into acting. She debuted in the KBS TV drama Dream High in 2011. The drama was a local hit, earning high ratings during its two-month broadcast, and also gained popularity in other countries. At the KBS Drama Awards, Suzy won Best New Actress as well as Best Couple with co-star Kim Soo Hyun.

Suzy made her film debut in "Architecture 101", playing the youngest version of the female protagonist. This was one of the ten most watched films in Korea in the first quarter of 2012, breaking a new box office record for Korean melodramas. That same year, Suzy got a supporting role in the Hong Sister drama Big, along with Gong Yoo and Lee Min Jung. In 2013, she starred in the historic action drama, Gu Family Book with Lee Seung Ki. She received acting recognition at the MBC Drama Awards, winning the Excellence Award and at the Seoul International Drama Awards, winning the Best Actress Award. She also participated in the "Healing Camp variety program", becoming the program's youngest guest. At the beginning of 2015, a comeback for Miss A was revealed to be held in the first half of the year. "Colors" was released at the end of March. In "Only You", the main song, Suzy plays an important role being the center most of the time in the choreography. That same year, Suzy collaborated with Taiwanese singer and actor Show Luo on the single "Together In Love", featured on her Reality Show album. In January of 2016, Suzy released a digital single titled "Dream" with EXO's Byun Baek Hyun. The song debuted at number one on Gaon's weekly digital list and proceeded to win the "Best Collaboration" award at the Mnet Asian Music Awards. She then starred in the melodramatic drama Uncontrollably Fond with Kim Woo Bin. Suzy released two OSTs for the drama, including a song she composed herself. In September 2016, Suzy's wax figure was exhibited at Madame Tussauds in Hong Kong, becoming the first Korean female celebrity to receive a distinction.

In early 2017, Suzy made her solo debut with the album "Yes? No?" Her pre-launch single, "Pretend" was released on January 17 and achieved an all-kill on the music charts. In February 2017, Suzy released a duet with singer Park Won entitled "Don't Wait for Your Love". In September, Suzy then returned to television, along with Lee Jong Suk in the drama While You Were Sleeping. It marked the second collaboration between Suzy and screenwriter Park Hye Ryun after working together on Dream High.

On January 4, 2018, Suzy announced the date of her first comeback as a soloist, her new mini album would contain a variety of song genres, and a total of 4 MV were made for her return.
