He made his debut in June 2013 as the group's sub-vocalist and visual with the single album, "2 Cool 4 Skool". BigHit Music (빅히트 뮤직) originally planned BTS as a hip-hop group, so it was not until 2016 that they began expanding their music to incorporate more genres. Their second studio album, "Wings", became the first to sell one million copies in South Korea, and the following year, they began paving the way for K-pop in the United States by receiving a gold certification from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for their single "Mic Drop".
He made his acting debut in December 2016 with a role in the KBS drama "Hwarang". Then, in 2018, all members were awarded the fifth-class Hwagwan Order of Cultural Merit by the President of South Korea for their contributions to Korean culture.
In July 2021, all members were appointed as Special Presidential Envoy for Future Generations and Culture by then President Moon Jae In to help "lead the global agenda for future generations, such as sustainable growth" and "expand South Korea's diplomatic efforts and global standing" in the international community.
In June 2022, BigHit announced the group would go on hiatus as all members would focus on individual activities for the time being.
He made his official debut as a solo artist in September 2023 with the mini-album "Layover". He has also written or co-written several of the group's songs as well as several OSTs.
He enlisted for his mandatory military service on December 11, 2023, and was discharged on June 10, 2025.
