Nancy Jewel McDonie is a Korean-American singer and entertainer signed under ATOC. She gained prominence as the youngest member of the girl group MOMOLAND, which debuted in 2016. Known for her dual heritage and global appeal, Nancy has been active in both the Korean and international entertainment industries.

Nancy began her public career in 2011 through her appearance on Korea’s Got Talent as part of the hip-hop group "Cutie Pies," which advanced to the semi-finals. In her early teens, she featured in several variety programs, most notably Mak Irae Rae Show: Just Do It Expedition, where she traveled internationally alongside actress Kim Yoo-jung and future STAYC member Sieun.

Before her official debut, Nancy trained under Nega Network before joining MLD Entertainment. She secured her place in MOMOLAND after winning first place in the survival show Finding Momoland. The group officially debuted on November 10, 2016, with the mini-album "Welcome to Momoland", and went on to achieve commercial success with viral hits like "Bboom Bboom".

Following the group's announcement of disbandment on February 14, 2023, conflicting statements emerged regarding MOMOLAND’s status, with suggestions of an indefinite hiatus rather than a formal disbandment. Shortly after, Nancy launched new social media accounts, signaling the start of her solo career under ATOC.

On April 10, 2025, MOMOLAND announced their return, now under Inyeon Entertainment (the same agency as 1THE9's former member Lee "ONLEE" Seung-hwan)
