He first started as a child actor (extra) and child model before receiving an offer to become an idol trainee at RBW Entertainment (알비더블유) when he was in middle school, but he failed the audition. He later passed auditions at several other agencies and was even supposed to debut as a member of VICTON, but he left IST Entertainment (formerly known as Plan A Entertainment).
He was contacted by RBW again, and this time, he became the company's 1st male trainee selected through an audition. He made his debut in January 2019 as ONEUS's main rapper, sub-vocalist and producer with their first EP, “Light Us".
He has been interested in dancing since childhood and was part of the dance club in high school. After debuting, he formed the dance crew URBAN BOYZ with Pentagon's Kino and A.C.E's Kim Byeong Kwan.
On October 14, 2022, an anonymous individual claiming to be his ex-girlfriend posted a detailed account of their involvement on X (formerly Twitter). Three days later, he was excluded from all group activities by RBW while they conducted an investigation. However, on October 27, 2022, the company announced he had left the group voluntarily.
In February 2023, he released several songs on SoundCloud and Youtube under his birth name that he produced, arranged, wrote and composed, expressing thoughts about the things he went through since he left ONEUS.
