However, in 2003, her mother asked the company to break her contract so she could return to her school. The agency agreed but soon after, Zhang signed a contract with SM Entertainment. She made her solo debut in 2006 with the single "Timeless" featuring TVXQ's Xiah and became the 1st foreigner to win the Newcomer Award at the Mnet Asian Music Awards.
