On 24 February 2015, Hung was nominated by the New Power Party as candidate for the legislative seat in the 3rd constituency of Taichung City, which includes Tanzi, Daya, Shengang and Houli. She opposed incumbent Kuomintang legislator Yang Chiung-ying in the 2016 legislative election, whom she defeated by 15,117 votes. After taking office, Hung was assigned to the Social Welfare and Environmental Hygiene Committee. Hung left the NPP on 13 August 2019, over a disagreement regarding the status of the NPP's cooperation with the Democratic Progressive Party.
