After less-than-stellar sales of the first album, two of the singers were replaced. A year later, their second album Again was released, with better results. Full of strong ballads the album quickly yielded two high-charting singles — "Tonight" and "Again" — which started the group's rise to popularity. This was quickly followed by their third album Beloved.
After the success of their sophomore album, Jewelery left for Japan to start on their career there in 2004 with their first single ココロが止まらない (Kokoro no Tomaranai) under the independent label Giza Studio. After releasing a few materials there with mediocre sales, the group eventually left to return to their native country to release their fourth album.
By the time their fourth album Superstar came out in the beginning of 2005, Jewelry has since shed their "cute image" concept. Following the trend in Korean pop, they became sexier and more womanly, which helped bring about their current level of success. The first single "Superstar" was a driven rock song and surprisingly became a huge hit. They followed this up with the sexy R&B number "Passion", which also charted strongly. In 2006, Jewelry took a break from the South Korean music industry in order to focus on Japan. During that time, member Ji-Hyun left to pursue an acting career. In early November, news also leaked out that another member, Cho Min-Ah, had also left, which forced their record company to look for a second replacement member. As Park Jung-Ah and Seo In-Young had solo projects, a new album was not expected until mid-2007.
In early 2008, Jewelry returned to the music scene with their new members Ha Joo Yeon and Kim Eun Jung with the release of their fifth album, Kitchi Island. Released on February 20, 2008, the album featured the single "One More Time", a cover of In-Grid's song. It is their most successful single to date gaining the group many awards and topping music charts as well as staying on the no. 1 spot for 7 weeks on KBS' Music Bank and MBC's Music Core. They followed the single up with the cheerleader-rock song 모두 다 쉿! (Everyone Shh!). At the end of the year they were awarded a Golden Disk for highest digital sales of 2008.
In June of 2009 the girls released a new single titled "Super Star" with the song "Rally" which features rapper Nassun. The song is for MNet's talent competition, Superstar K, which is similar to American Idol and Britain's Got Talent. A music video was also released and features the group's performance of the song on Mnet's M! Countdown as well as scenes of Superstar K.
About a week prior to the album release, the song "Strong Girl" was released as a digital single. Their 6th album Sophisticated was released on the 27th of August and features the single "Vari2ty", the music video for the song was also released on the same day.
It was announced in December 2009 that members Seo In Young and Park Jung Ah would be leaving the group after completing promotional activities for Sophisticated and fully commit to their solo careers. Park stated that as an original member of Jewelry and being with the group for 10 years, it was time for her to depart. Korean media reports Superstar K top 10 contender Semi as highly likely to replace them.
A repackaged edition of their 6th album entitled End And.. was released in December 17th, 2009 with the single "Love Story". It was composed by the same producer of Davichi's hit song "Hate Though I Love You" and describes the feelings of Seo In Young and Park Jung Ah's departures.
On June 14, 2010, it has been announced that Semi, one of the Top 10 finalists in Superstar K Season 1, will be joining Jewelry. On November 17, Star Empire Entertainment announced that they were planning on changing the group's name but later announced on December 15 Jewelry would retain their group name and would not change it, they also announced the group's comeback was delayed until January 2011.
On January 17, 2011, Jewelry released their comeback teaser with their new members. The teaser featured the group practicing their choreography and also had clips of the girls casually hanging out together. The group underwent a 180 degree change, shedding their cutesy image and changing into a more powerful 'locking' hip hop dance style and b-girls concept. It was revealed that the group would have their comeback release a digital single on January 27, 2011, entitled "Back It Up", produced by Outsidaz. Two days later on January 19, 2011, it was revealed that Jewelry's fourth member, Yewon, had joined Jewelry. Yewon was revealed by fans through a 'Jewelry Puzzle Game', which also revealed a 20 second teaser of "Back It Up". It was known that Yewon was a trainee under Star Empire Entertainment for 4 years and was born in 1989.
On March 3, 2014, it was revealed that Eunjung's contract had expired and she would be leaving the group. Yewon was casted on a weekend drama, Hotel King. In the drama, she played the role of an enthusiastic front desk officer on 'Hotel King'. On April 17, 2014, Yewon host a talk show Mnet Mcountdown Begins with Kwill. Semi in a new sitcom, Boarding House no 24 as Park Semi who is the niece of the boarding house.
On November 19, 2014, Baby J revealed that she will be leaving Jewelry as her contract expired last August. It was also revealed that Semi would not be renewing her contract after it expired that month. On January 7, 2015, the group was officially confirmed as disbanded

알면서 난 너에게 내 전부를 모두
주고 싶은걸
날 떠난 후에도 네가 줬던
사랑으로 너 혹시나 떠올리게
될까봐
잠시 멈춰있는데 니가 떠난 후에
시간이 지나가도 변하는게 없는데
어제뿐인데 같은 하루를 맴돌고만
있는데
난 돌아서는 너를 보며 울고 넌
내가 아닌 사랑으로 웃고
난 웃고있는 너를 보며 다시 또
울잖아
함께 있는것 마저도 힘들어서
떠난거라면 나를 볼 수 없게 멀리
있을께
잠시 멈춰있는데 니가 떠난 후에
시간이 지나가도 변하는게 없는데
오늘이 지나도 내겐 항상
어제뿐인데 같은 하루를 맴돌고만
있는데
난 돌아서는 너를 보며 울고 넌
내가 아닌 사랑으로 웃고
난 웃고있는 너를 보며 다시 또
울잖아
함께 있는것 마저도 힘들어서
떠난거라면 나를 볼 수 없게 멀리
있을께
기다림에 치져가도 내게
돌아오지 않아도 너를 추억할게
내가 지칠때까지
난 미안이라 이라 말하지는마 넌
시간이 해결할꺼란 말은 마
내겐 지워지지 않는 너란걸
알잖아
기다림에 지쳐도 추억으로 끝난다
해도 항상 기다리는 나를 기억해
내안에 너 간직하니까
In the song "Sad" by Jewelry, the lyrics express the pain and confusion one feels after a breakup. The singer is aware that their partner is going to leave, yet they still want to give their all and be fully committed. They fear that even after their departure, they will still reminisce about the love they once shared.
The first paragraph talks about how time seems to stand still for the singer after their partner leaves. No matter how much time passes, nothing changes. Each day feels the same, revolving around memories of the past. The singer looks back at their partner, crying, while their partner pretends to be happy with a new love. This contrast between their emotions leads the singer to feel even more heartbroken.
In the second paragraph, the singer acknowledges that being together was difficult, and if their partner left, they would stay far away and make sure they couldn't see them. Again, time seems to freeze after the breakup, and the singer feels like they are trapped in the same day over and over. The cycle of crying while looking at their partner who is smiling makes the singer cry even more.
The third paragraph expresses the singer's willingness to hold onto the memories, even if their partner never returns. They will remember and cherish the moments they shared together, even if it exhausts them. The singer pleads with their partner not to apologize or say that time will heal everything because they know deep down that they can never erase the memories of their love.
The final paragraph highlights the persistence of the singer's longing. They know that even if they become tired of waiting, the memories will always remain, and they will continue to wait. The mention of holding their partner within themselves suggests that their love will endure in their heart, no matter what happens.
