He enjoyed a quiet childhood in South Korea until he was 11, when his parents divorced. As an only child, his mother had issues raising him, so he went to the Philippines to study abroad at age 15, and eventually, he graduated from Reedley International School.

In 2010, he appeared on TV in the Philippines for the first time when he auditioned to enter the "Pinoy Big Brother" house along with 10 international housemates.

After that, he started appearing as a guest judge in the comedy variety show "It's Showtime" until he was named a permanent member in 2012. He also began appearing in many other TV shows, and in 2011, he released his first single, "I Lilly Lilly Like It: Ryan Bang Party Party Hits!" and is now a household name in the Philippines.
