He finished by overall placing 22nd and soon was offered to join project boy group JBJ, consisting of contestants chosen by the viewers. In October 2017, JBJ debuted with their first extended play Fantasy.^[5] After seven months, the group's contract came to an end in April 2018.^[6] In midst of promotions with JBJ, Kwon appeared on JTBC reality program Live a Good Life alongside labelmates WINNER's Kim Jin-woo and Yoo Byung-jae.^[7] Following disbandment, Kwon became a fixed cast member of MBC variety program Dunia: Into a New World.^[8]

Music Core on August 24.

In March 2024, Kwon signed with new agency Ghost Studio.^[12]
