In early 2011, SM Entertainment (SM엔터테인먼트) formed two separate groups, EXO-K and EXO-M, with plans to have one perform in South Korea and the other in China.
He made his debut in April 2012 as EXO-K's main vocalist with the Korean version of their first EP, "Mama". For several years, the groups performed separately until the release of their third EP, "Overdose", in 2014, when they began performing as a single group and have continued to do so until now.
In October 2016, he joined Chen and Xiumin in the sub-unit EXO-CBX (엑소-첸백시) and debuted with their first EP, "Hey Mama!".
In July 2019, he made his debut as a solo artist with his first EP, "City Lights". In October of that year, SM Entertainment decided to create a project group with members of several groups in order to promote overseas. He debuted as SUPERM's leader and main vocalist with their first self-titled EP.
He enlisted for mandatory military service on May 6, 2021, and was discharged on February 5, 2023.
In June 2023, he notified SM Entertainment of his decision not to renew his expiring contract. Then, in January 2024, it was announced that his new agency, INB100 (아이앤비100) would manage the individual activities of Chen, Xiumin, and him as well as their unit activities as EXO-CBX, while SM Entertainment would continue to manage their group activities as EXO.
