During her undergraduate studies, Noh won first prize in the general division of the Korea Organist Association Competition and first prize at the Catholic University of Korea Church Music Conservatory. She later became the youngest finalist at the Asia Organ Competition (organized by the AGO Taiwan Chapter), where she earned second prize.

In January 2023, she became the first Asian winner of the prestigious International Mendelssohn Competition (Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy Wettbewerb), earning both the First Prize and the Contemporary Work Interpretation Award.
