Jessica Jung, a talented singer and the only Girls’ Generation member to debut as a soloist, has followed a unique path since leaving the group. Below are links to sources about her time as a member and her time now as a solo artist:
Soompi – Soompi’s Ultimate Lookbook: Girls' Generation’s Jessica (2012)- an early 2010s collection of photos of Jessica Jung. It's fun to look back and see the performance appearance of past K-Pop stars like Jessica Jung- who is my favorite Girls Generation member.
AllKPop: Jessica opens up about the struggles of leaving Girls' Generation (Ha, 2023)- an article that contains links to videos detailing Jessica Jung's career after Girls' Generation. Even though fans have missed her being in the group, her reasons for leaving are completely understandable.
Koreaboo: Jessica Reveals How Her Life Changed After Leaving Girls’ Generation (2017)- Jessica shares how leaving Girls' Generation opened up new opportunities in her career that would not have been possible if she were still a Girls' Generation member. While it was sad to see her leave SNSD, I’ve truly enjoyed her solo music ever since.
Billboard: Jessica Jung on Recording Solo After Girls’ Generation: ‘I Was Really Surprised I Could Have Input’ (Herman, 2016)- Jessica gives detail about a few songs that she has done solo and describes her fears of working with western artists in a harmonic union. The article mentions With Love, J, which was the first solo album she released in May of 2016. Having listened to the album myself, my favorite song would be "Big Mini World" due to its dreamy and elegant vibe.
