Unbeknownst to some, Ahn moved to Toronto, Canada, when he was seven and only returned to South Korea when he was 17. Before becoming an actor, Ahn trained in JYP Entertainment for three years. During that time, he lived with members of the K-pop group, Got7. Ahn debuted in the drama Splash Splash Love in 2015 and eventually landed his first lead role in Queen of the Ring in 2017. That same year, he starred in My Father Is Stranger and rose to popularity.
From there, Ahn transitioned into lead roles, including Abyss, and the second season of Dr. Romantic. For his role as surgeon Seo Woo-jin, the actor received the Best New Actor Award at the 56th Baeksang Arts Awards.
