Prior to her debut, Siyeon briefly trained to become an idol in Korea. After failing to attend art college due to an injury, she applied for NMB48's 7th generation but couldn't attend the final round of auditions due to the pandemic.

After spending 2 years in the group, Siyeon graduated from NMB48 on August 8, 2023.[3][4]
