It took four years before he debuted with his first lead role in JTBC Entertainment drama Something in the Rain that wrapped up in May.

Later in 2016, he portrayed the role of Yoo Seo-joon in Yes, That’s How It Is and earned him the “New Star Award” at the 2016 SBS Drama Awards. Then he showcased a character of a commanding officer who was framed for killing his own team member in Prison Playbook in which he won as Most Popular Actor in the Baeksang Arts Award that same year.
