Hyolyn appeared in the variety show "Immortal Song 2" from June until September of 2011, and was crowned the top winner in the pilot episode. Due to her great vocal ability and stage presence on the show and other variety programs, she has been labeled as the Korean Beyoncé by some singers within country.
In March 2011, Hyolyn was a guest on Strong Heart where she revealed that she was born prematurely and weighed in at 4.2 kg (about 9 lbs) at birth. During her mother's pregnancy, water had filled Hyolyn's stomach, which led her to become a premature birth. Bile was unable to be passed through her intestines, which eventually damaged her liver, causing a biliary atresia. Although the required surgery had low chances of sustaining life, Hyolyn was able to survive the 10-hour long surgery.
A year later, however, she was diagnosed with intussusception (a medical condition where parts of the intestine folds over into another section of the intestine) and received surgery for enterectomy.
Hyolyn debuted with SISTAR in 2010, with the single "Push Push (푸쉬푸쉬)".
On October 17, 2011, she released featured single "Ma Boy 2" with Electroboyz.
As an MBC 2012 Lunar Year special, the variety show We Got Married spin-off "Pit-a-Pat Shake" aired its pilot episode featuring virtual idol couples experiencing dating life. Hyolyn's partner was revealed to be Super Junior's Sungmin. In the pilot, Sungmin and Hyolyn performed traditional Korean opera.
Recently, Hyolyn has begun an acting career starring in the KBS drama “Dream High Season 2” as Nana, a famous idol from the fictional girl group HershE.
In 2015, Hyolyn officially debuted as a rapper in Unpretty Rapstar 2.

Love you love you
My baby baby baby baby baby
I love you love you love you
Love you love you love n free
My baby baby baby baby baby
Love n free
늘 같이 너와 걷던 이 거리
멍하니 서성거리고 하늘만 보다가
신호가 바뀌고 너의 모습이 보여
걸음을 떼지 못하고 돌아서 버렸어
돌아서는 내 발걸음 위로 눈물
자국이 하나하나 새겨지고
헤어지자 말한 건 난데 끝내자고
말했던 난데
널 스쳐 지나간 난 이렇게 아픈데
날 사랑하지 마 사랑하지 마
사랑하지 마
혼자 참으며 혼자 삼키며 하는 거짓말
널 두고서 떠나고서 이렇게 아픈데
나처럼 너도 아프지 않기를 바래
마지막 인사를 건넸던 그때가
떠올라 붙잡아주길 바란 건 네
욕심이었니
입맞추던 우리 모습 뒤로 바람에
흩날리던 꽃잎 향기까지
우리 사랑 돌이켜 보며 우리 사랑
되돌아 보며
후회만 가득해 또 이렇게 아픈데
날 사랑하지 마 사랑하지 마
사랑하지 마
혼자 참으며 혼자 삼키며 하는 거짓말
널 두고서 떠나고서 이렇게 아픈데
나처럼 너도 아프지 않기를 바래
I love you love you love you
Love you love you 눈물 때문에
My baby baby baby baby baby
널 볼 수 조차 없었어
I love you love you love you love
You love you 내가 사랑한 만큼
My baby baby baby baby baby
이렇게 난 또 아파 왜
날 사랑하지 마 사랑하지 마
사랑하지 마
혼자 참으며 혼자 삼키며 하는 거짓말
널 두고서 떠나고서 이렇게 아픈데
나처럼 너도 아프지 않기를 바래
날 사랑하지 마 사랑하지 마
사랑하지 마
혼자 참으며 혼자 삼키며 하는 거짓말
널 두고서 떠나고서 이렇게 아픈데
나처럼 너도 아프지 않기를 바래

I want our love to be unrestricted and without boundaries
In the same street we used to walk together
In the place where we used to spend time together
Standing here
I find myself standing here
Lost in thought, wandering aimlessly while only looking at the sky
Lost in my own thoughts, wandering aimlessly and gazing at the sky
The traffic light changes and I see your figure
As the traffic light changes, I catch a glimpse of you
Unable to take another step, I turned around
Unable to move forward, I turned back
Tears fall upon the path I left behind
Tears mark the path I walked on
Each tear leaves its mark on my footsteps
Each tear leaves a visible trace on the path I took
We said we should part ways, but let's end it all
We agreed to break up, but let's make it final
I said we should end it
I suggested that we should put an end to it
Passing by you, I am in so much pain
Seeing you pass by hurts me deeply
Don't love me, don't love me
Please don't love me anymore
Don't love me
Stop loving me
Enduring it alone, swallowing the lies I tell myself
Holding it in and pretending to be okay all by myself
Leaving you behind and leaving, I am in so much pain
Pain is consuming me as I leave you and walk away
I hope you won't be in pain like me
I hope you won't suffer like I am
Hoping that when we exchanged our final greetings
Wishing that when we said our last goodbyes
I think back to that moment and hope you would hold on to me
I reminisce about that moment and wish you would hold on to me
Were you being greedy
Were you being selfish?
Behind the scenes of our kisses, in the wind
Behind our kissing scenes, in the wind
Even the scent of the scattered flower petals
Even the scent of the flower petals being blown away
Looking back at our love, looking back at our love
Reflecting on our love, reminiscing about our love
Full of regrets, once again I am in so much pain
Overwhelmed with regrets, once again I am in so much pain
Don't love me, don't love me
Please don't love me anymore
Don't love me
Stop loving me
Enduring it alone, swallowing the lies I tell myself
Holding it in and pretending to be okay all by myself
Leaving you behind and leaving, I am in so much pain
Pain is consuming me as I leave you and walk away
I hope you won't be in pain like me
I hope you won't suffer like I am
I love you love you love you
I have strong feelings for you and I want to express my love
Love you love you tears because of
I love you so much that it brings tears to my eyes
My baby baby baby baby baby
You are my beloved and I care for you deeply
I couldn't even see you
I wasn't able to see you at all
I love you love you love you love
I have strong feelings of love for you
You love you as much as I loved
I hope you love me as much as I loved you
My baby baby baby baby baby
You are my cherished one and I adore you
Why am I hurting like this again
Why am I feeling this pain once again?
Don't love me, don't love me
Please don't love me anymore
Don't love me
Stop loving me
Enduring it alone, swallowing the lies I tell myself
Holding it in and pretending to be okay all by myself
Leaving you behind and leaving, I am in so much pain
Pain is consuming me as I leave you and walk away
I hope you won't be in pain like me
I hope you won't suffer like I am
Don't love me, don't love me
Please don't love me anymore
Don't love me
Stop loving me
Enduring it alone, swallowing the lies I tell myself
Holding it in and pretending to be okay all by myself
Leaving you behind and leaving, I am in so much pain
Pain is consuming me as I leave you and walk away
I hope you won't be in pain like me
I hope you won't suffer like I am
