Early Life and Career

2011: Pledis Boys
Doyoon was a trainee under Pledis for 3 years, under which he was an original Pledis Boy (a name given to the first male trainees officially shown). The group of boys, which included members who would later join Nu'est and Seventeen, commonly appeared with their female label mates in their promotions, including Ceci Magazine and their SBS Gayo Daejun stage. They also appeared in Happy Pledis', the name used when Pledis artists promote as a whole, video for Love Letter, and promoted the song with Happy Pledis on Music Core.

2012: Tempest
In 2012, Pledis Boys was split into two groups, Nu'est (JR, Aron, Minhyun, Ren, & Baekho) and Tempest (Doyoon, Seungcheol, & Yusang), with both groups to debut in 2012. Tempest gained two new members, Jihun and Youngwon, and were put on the backburner as Nu'est was promoted more heavily. Pledis Boys as a whole released a limited magazine entitled "Pledis Boys Magazine". Nu'est debuted a week after the magazine's release, while Tempest went through lineup changes. Members Yusang and Youngwon departed, leaving Doyoon, Seungcheol, & Jihun. Tempest's plans were scrapped and the three were sent back to trainee status.

During the year, Doyoon appeared in multiple videos for his labelmates, including the debut music video of Nu'est and Hello Venus' debut teaser and debut music video.

After the scrapping of Tempest, Pledis released plans for a new boy group entitled "Seventeen". Initially, they were to debut by the end of the year with 17 members that had an average age of 17. The group would promote in South Korea, China, and Japan at the same time in 3 sub groups. After only a few months, the group's debut was pushed back to 2013. No member info was released, though fans speculated that the 3 members from the old Tempest were set to debut in the group.

Instead of debuting as official artists, Seventeen opened a web stream called "17tv" on ustream, showing the growth and training of the 11 possible members. Jihun was the only Tempest member to take part in the debut episode on December 24.

He stayed on the show and took part in all of the activities of Seventeen, including multiple "shows" or concerts at the end of each season.

In August, it was announced that Doyoon had gotten a small role on the drama special ''Happy! Rose Day'', marking his acting debut. He gained attention from the drama's audience for his good looks.
