Tsai first started her singing career by taking part in an MTV singing competition at the age of 18. She won the top prize at the competition with her rendition of
Whitney Houston's #1 hit "
Greatest Love of All". She was then signed by
Universal Music.
In July 1999, her first single "Living With the World" (和世界做鄰居) was released. It was sold in convenience stores and was a tremendous success, which led to the release of her first album,
Jolin 1019, in September 1999. At that time, she was promoted as "The Girl Next Door," and was an instant hit with teenagers, earning her the title "Teenage Boy Killer"[

Don't Stop. Many of the hits from that album were well known throughout Asia as the album also became a tremendous success.[

Nearing the age of 21, Tsai changed her image in her third album,
Show Your Love. The album was considered more mature and soothing.[

Lucky Number, also failed to match the sales of her first two albums. Tsai's music career came to a halt when conflicts surfaced between her and her music company.[
