Life
Kangin was supposed to debut in the boy band Four Seasons. The band was dissolved before their debut and he and his later bandmate Heechul were brought to the band Super Junior.
In November 2005 he made his debut after four years of preparation as one of twelve members in the boy band Super Junior. In 2007 Kangin became a member of the subgroup Super Junior-T , which dealt with the music genre Trot . In 2008 Kangin became a member of the Super Junior-H subgroup , which was disbanded a year later due to a lack of success. Furthermore, Kangin made his debut as a musical singer in 2008, together with his teammate Heechul in the musical Xanadu, which was performed in Seoul until November 2008.
In addition to his singing career, Kangin has been promoting his television career since 2006 and has appeared in various productions as an actor or presenter.

On July 5, 2010, Kangin was drafted into the South Korean army service and thus had to forcibly pause his activities at Super Junior. After 21 months of service in the army, Kangin was released on April 16, 2012.
