In 2020, he participated in the singing competition "Mr. Trot" placing 3rd overall and earning a lot of fans. In 2021, he released his first single and his first mini-album and won the Rookie of the Year Award at the 11th Gaon Chart Music Awards. He has a vast musical knowledge earning him the nickname "Chanto Wiki" from his fans. He was invited to serve as a guest waiting room host for the show "Immortal Songs: Singing the Legend" and he kept the job and began taking other MC jobs as well.
