Debut: Signed a contract with SM Entertainment after he won the “Best Outward Appearance” award with future bandmate Sungmin on the Company’s third annual SM Youth Best Contest.

Donghae was then put into another boy band group, Super Junior 05 now known as Super Junior without the 05 suffix.

How he became a singer: When Donghae was a child, he dreamed of becoming a athlete… but he always liked dancing in front of his father. He wasn’t sure whether or not his father was serious but he told Donghae to “Be a singer”, so when he was in the 6th grade. Donghae replied to his dad, “No, I want to be an athlete.” But then at the end of his 7th grade year he noticed a small advertisment in an album that said “apply for an audition”. When Donghae told his father he wanted to try out for an audition his father said “yes” and “slipped some money into his hand”. Donghae had passed the auditions.(Donghae’s father wanted to become a singer, but due to the objection of Donghae’s grandfather.. he couldn’t. So Donghae decided to audition instead of becoming an athlete.)
