In 2018 she starred in Peter Jackson’s MORTAL ENGINES as Anna Fang, a fierce resistance leader in the epic dystopian saga. David Ehrlich of ‘Indiewire’ raved about Jihae’s performance, stating that ‘the part (of Anna Fang) is so interesting because of Jihae’s unstudied energy, and the elusiveness it brings...’ She garnered critical acclaim by Rolling Stone who claimed, "Jihae has an illegal amount of screen presence. " V Magazine called her "a real life superhero." The film, co-starring Hera Hilmar, Hugo Weaving, and Robert Sheehan, was released worldwide by MRC and Universal Pictures.

Jihae starred in the television series MARS in which she played a set of twin sisters: one the astronaut/pilot commander of the first human colony on Mars, the other, the Secretary General of Space Agency on earth produced by Ron Howard and Brian Grazer. Mars S2 aired on Nat Geo TV in November 2018 across 171 countries along with her a cover of David Bowie’s ‘Life on Mars’.

On Human Rights Day 2018, she released a single called ‘Lets Come Together.’ The song was written and performed by Jihae and was arranged by Oscar winning composer/producer Teese Gohl also performing on piano. The choir is sung by the students and faculty at The Putney School. ‘Let’s Come Together’ is a song to give a voice to the displaced people around the world. 100% songwriter's proceeds went to International Medical Corps' program for Children and Women's Health Including Gender Violence in over 80 countries around the world.

Jihae wrote and produced a multimedia rock opera based on her third LP, 'Fire Burning Rain' with Academy Award-winning playwright John Patrick Shanley.
