Lee Chan joined Pledis Entertainment in 2012 for training in singing and dancing. As a trainee, he was a part of Seventeen TV from its inception, an online reality show that introduced Pledis' trainees and showed potential members of the boy group Seventeen before their official debut. The show was broadcast periodically on Ustream, where the trainees showed themselves training, singing, creating choreographies and playing games.[3] The online show also included participation in concerts, titled Like Seventeen.[4][5]

In 2015, Dino debuted as a member of the South Korean boy group Seventeen with the extended play 17 Carat on May 26.[6]

In 2017, following his graduation from high school, Dino released his first solo song, "0 (Zero)", on SoundCloud. It was written by himself and composed by Bumzu.[7] At the end of 2017 he released another song, "The Real Thing", again a collaboration with Bumzu.[8]

Since 2018, Dino has released a series of dance videos under the name Dino's Danceology, choreographed himself. The series has 11 entries as of 2024, including 5 Seconds of Summer's "Thin White Lines" and Josef Salvat's "call on me".[9][10]

At Seventeen's 2021 Power of Love online concert, Dino debuted his third solo song, "Last Order".[11]

In June 2022, Dino released a digital song named "High-Five", written by himself and produced alongside Prismfilter's Hey Farmer.[12]

In 2023, Dino and his bandmate Jeonghan were cast in MBC every1's reality show Magic Lamp (요술램프) alongside Kim Jae-joong, Kang Hui, Lee Joo-ahn, Junpi, and Tan.[13] In August 2023, alongside bandmates DK and Joshua, Dino was featured on New Kids On The Block's remix to their 2008 song Dirty Dancing, released as a part of a commemoration of the 15th anniversary of the album The Block's release.[14]

In October 2023, Dino released his first OST song, participating in the soundtrack for television series Castaway Diva with the song "Icarus".[15] On November 17, Pledis announced that Dino would be releasing his first mixtape to streaming platforms, Wait. It was released November 27.[16] At the 38th Golden Disc Awards, Dino performed "Fighting" with BSS as "Pi Cheol-in", a signature middle-aged character frequently invoked by him in Seventeen's content.[17]

In January 2024, Dino was announced as the new presenter of Tokyo FM's School of Lock program, a role previously held by his bandmate Jeonghan.[18]
