Gyeonggi Province. An aspiring singer, he unsuccessfully applied to
Anyang Arts High School under the Department of Theater and Film. He
reapplied under the dance program as his second choice and was
accepted. He avoided dancing for the first two years, instead taking
singing and music lessons. In order to graduate from high school, he
was required to conceive a dance piece. A male dance teacher visited
the school to aid in the students' production, when Kang "fell in
love" with ballet upon seeing the teacher's moves. In addition to
ballet, he practiced modern dance during his final year in high
school. He passed Sejong University's concours and was admitted as a
dance major despite not learning how to dance. He graduated from the
institution and, for two years, served as a ballet instructor for
rhythmic gymnasts Son Yeon-jae and Shin Soo-ji. He later attended
Korea National Open University.After deliberating between a career in
ballet and music, he decided to participate in the second season of
the talent television series Superstar K. Following his appearance on
the show, he began receiving "love calls" from various entertainment
companies, which he rejected for an opportunity to try out for Fly to
the Sky's Hwanhee under H2 Media. Upon failing the audition, he sat by
a water purifier at the company's entrance and greeted staff for the
following seven consecutive days to have them recognize his face. He
explained, "I did it because I wanted to show them how eager I was and
that I can do it". As a result, he was invited to practice and became
a trainee under the label.
