He received the Excellence Award, Actor in a Miniseries Genre/Fantasy Drama, and won the Best Couple Award with Kim Yoo-Jung at the 2021 SBS Drama Awards for his drama 'Lovers of the Red Sky'.

On May 2, 2022 he announced a new start with his agency The present co. The new agency has been jointly established by Ahn Hyo Seop and his longtime manager who worked with the actor from before his debut.
