He debuted with NCT U in 2016, joined NCT 127 in 2017, and made his Japanese debut in 2018.
As a member of the globally acclaimed group NCT, he is loved around the world for his sweet voice and excellent singing ability. He also gained huge popularity with his sensual music and sophisticated charm in his NCT DOJAEJUNG unit activities. It is expected that attention will be focused once again on the new transformation he will show in his solo activities.
He has also emerged as the “OST King” by participating in many songs such as “Like a Star” for the OST of the drama “Yumi’s Cells,” “Beautiful Day” for the OST of “Romantic Doctor Kim Sabu 3,” and “Unable to Love” for the OST of “X Who Doesn’t Love Me.” He has also attracted attention by participating in various collaborations such as “Fallin,” a duet with actor Kim Min-ha, “Don’t say goodbye” with Locoberry, and “Star Blossom” with Kim Sejeong, further building expectations for his first solo album.
