After her commercial appearance, she was discovered by Dorian Entertainment, which she signed on as her management company. During this time, she and future group members Tia Lee and Emily Song of Dream Girls were under training before officially debuting as a group. Kuo had several appearances in variety shows such as Guess, 100% Entertainment, and Kangxi Lai Le and appeared in numerous music videos.

In December 2011, Kuo had her first acting role in SETTV's drama Inborn Pair, playing the supporting role of the daughter of a triad boss. Inborn Pair was a ratings success and saw the boost in popularity of its stars. In 2012, Kuo starred in her first film, Silent Code.

In December, Dream Girls released their second group EP Girl's Talk.

In 2013, Kuo made a cameo appearance in Fabulous Boys, the Taiwanese remake of the popular Korean idol drama You're Beautiful. That same year she also got her first lead role, opposite Aaron Yan in SETTV's Just You, playing the role Cheng Liang Liang. The Kuo and Yan pairing was well received, and the two won the "Best Screen Couple Award" at the 2013 Sanlih Drama Awards. The same year in December, Dream Girls released their debut studio album. At the beginning of 2014, Kuo became a part of the second season of We Got Married Global Edition. Super Junior's Kim Heechul appeared as Kuo's partner in the variety show.

In Pleasantly Surprised, Kuo starred opposite popular male model and actor Jasper Liu, whom she first met and previously collaborated with for a short comedy skit at the 2013 Golden Bell Awards presentation show, where they played a couple as leads in a romantic idol drama.

Kuo and Liu's chemistry as a screen couple was successful and well received by critics and viewers. The two won the "Best Kiss" award at the 2014 Sanlih drama awards. Kuo also showed that her popularity was rising outside of Taiwan when she won the "China Wave Award" at the same ceremony.
