However, he did not make the cut and placed at #60, which led to him leaving the show. He was part of an open audition in 2013 after leaving JYP. In this audition, he was the only participant to be chosen by all three entertainment companies (Cube, Sonic Music, and Nega Network). In December, Hui danced at the KBS Festival and was in a special stage with Son Dong-wwon and Kwon So-hyun.

In February 2015, Hui was in a vocal project group, Seorin-dong Children, alongside now Pentagon member Jinho and another female vocalist. They were not planned to be the official group as they initially recorded the guide of the song, but Cube decided to release the guide as the official song.

Hui debuted in co-ed project group Triple H on May 1 with their EP 199x alongside members HyunA and E'dawn (now known as Dawn).

He was chosen along with Astro's MJ, Ok Jin-wook, A.cian's Chu Hyeok-jun, and Park Hyeong-seok. The group debuted on August 22 with their songs 'All Eyes On Me' and 'Hello' on MBC's Show! Music Core.
