In 2016 there was an audition for Kpop Star in Seattle, he got accepted after that he came to Korea and got eliminated in the third round of the show. He was about to go back to university, but the company (LOEN) called him to make him a kpop star.
He says, he had no hesitation going on Kpop Star, he thought he wasn't going to make it, so he didn't have big expectations. But he was a bit more hesitant and careful going into the trainee process, because he was warned about sketchy companies. Luckily he got into the good company and group.
