An was a model before officially entering the entertainment industry. She appeared on the variety show Guess and subsequently signed with a company.

She released her first album in August 2011.[3][5] Later that year, she signed a NT$1 million ($42,500) contract with Reebok to become the brand's Taiwanese ambassador.[6] After a year and half in the making, An released her second album in January 2013.[4] In 2014, she was a Taiwan Fund for Children and Families's Child Protection Ambassador.[7] Her third album was released in September 2014.[5] In it, she tried to focus more on "arts rhythm of the steps of a dance" to show a varied aspect of hers in terms of style of music and her appearance.[5]
