One of her notable performances in 2005 was the 5th Pattaya Music Festival in Thailand, which helped promote and expose her to the foreign music industry.

Lim will also be debuting in America, and will not be on any entertainment shows to focus on a successful debut in America. One of her last performances was at the 2008 JYP TOUR in Madison Square Garden, New York.

Lim Jeong Hee grew up in a musical environment, in which her father was an ardent fan of pop music and a collector of countless music LPs. She was educated with classical music in her childhood, beginning with learning to play the piano. Despite this, as she grew up, she gained more interest in pop music rather than the classical music she had studied.

In high school, Lim participated in a song contest for teens held by Seoul City and won the grand prize. The experience of competing in the song contest and winning the top prize led Lim to enter college to study popular music. She is signed with the same management agency as some of the biggest Korea pop stars, Rain (비) and G.O.D. However, Lim is more famous on the street music scene than on television or the radio. Even before she had her official debut, Lim held countless street performances on her own which led to the creation of her multiple fan clubs.

Recently, Lim has released an official album entitled “Music is My Life”. Through her street performances, Lim said that she has learned so much about music and found an increased love and passion towards music. Lim says that she will continue to hold street performance not only in Seoul but also all around the country.

Her third album, Before I Go J-Lim made headlines for featuring Big Boi from Outkast who also appeared in the music video.

오늘밤도 어김없이 내게 다가와
부드럽게 나를 감싸고 날 어루만지며
달콤한 목소리로 또 나의 귓가에
유혹의 말을 자꾸 속삭여주네
그런 널 나는 절대로 거부할 수 없어
자꾸만 너의 품속으로 빠져들어가
주체할 수가 없어 미쳐버릴 것 같아
이 기분을 절대 놓치기 싫어

Now boy lay me down.
Rockin' through the town
Bumpin' up and down.
Now let's make that sound
알잖아 얼마나 또 얼마나 기다려 왔는지
볼륨을 높여 나를 흔들어
심장이 뛰게 내 눈이 멀게
You know that I can't stop cause it's you
We got the Melody
매일 밤 난 니가 없인 못살 것만 같아서 또
같은 시간 같은 장소 너를 찾아가
너를 기다리는 시간이 내겐 너무 힘들어
널 만나면 난 어쩔 줄을 모르겠어
Now boy lay me down.
Rockin' through the town
Bumpin' up and down.
Now let's make that sound
알잖아 얼마나 또 얼마나 기다려 왔는지
볼륨을 높여 나를 흔들어
심장이 뛰게 내 눈이 멀게
You know that I can't stop cause it's you
We got the Melody
어쩌면 내일 아침이 오면 난 널 잊겠지만
오늘 밤은 너의 품속에서 이 순간을 즐길래
Now boy lay me down.
Rockin' through the town
Bumpin' up and down.
Now let's make that sound
알잖아 얼마나 또 얼마나 기다려 왔는지
볼륨을 높여 나를 흔들어
심장이 뛰게 내 눈이 멀게

You know that I can't stop cause it's you
We got the Melody

But tonight, I'll enjoy this moment in your embrace
