Jung studied Visual Art and Feminist Theory at Ewha Womans University and at the University of Leeds, UK. Her artistic interest lies in how the yearning desires of unknown individuals meet with the events of the world, and how such contacts become resistance, history, or politics. Since 2008, she has been working on 'Yeoseong Gukgeuk' Project.
