By the second week, the song climbed to number 17 on the Gaon Digital Chart, number 9 on the Download chart, and number 16 on the Streaming Chart.

"NUNU NANA" was promoted with a dance challenge on TikTok, which went viral on the platform.

On ct. 10, 2020, Jessi collaborated with Uhm Jung Hwa (Manok), Lee Hyori (Cheonok), and Hwasa (Silbi) and formed the project group Refund Sister". As a group, they released the song "Don't Touch Me." In 2020, she also collaborated with DAWN for the song "DAWNDIDIDDAWN."

Additionally, Jessi is the host of her own show "Showterview with Jessi", which can be watched on SBS's Mobidic YouTube channel. She is also a judge on Mnet's "CAP-TEEN."

Jessi performed at the KBS Gayo Daechujke, SBS's Gayo Daejun, and MBC's Gayo Daejejeong - meaning she performed in all three major song festivals. On top of that, she performed at the Mnet Asian Music Awards (MAMAs) and the SBS Entertainment Awards. At the MAMAs, Jessi won the "Favorite Dance Performance - Female Solo" for "NUNU NANA" and at the SBS Entertainment Awards, she won the "Rookie Award" for "Showterview with Jessi."

With all the activities she had in 2020 (and even the start of 2021!), she definitely deserves time to rest.
