DK joined Pledis Entertainment in late 2011, having auditioned for the company after being inspired by South Korean singer Yoon Do-hyun's career.[5] He auditioned with three songs: YB Band's "Peppermint Candy", 2AM's "This Song" and the Korean version of "This Is the Moment" from the musical Jekyll & Hyde.[6]

In 2013, he began appearing in Seventeen TV, an online reality show that introduced Pledis' trainees and showed potential members of the boy group Seventeen before their official debut. The show was broadcast periodically on Ustream, where the trainees showed themselves training, singing, creating choreographies and playing games.[7] The online show also included participation in concerts, titled Like Seventeen.[8][9]
