After over two years of training, in 2013, B.I participated in Mnet reality survival program WIN: Who Is Next as a contestant under Team B.

While B.I was still competing on Show Me the Money 3, it was announced in September 2014 that Team B would return to compete on another survival program, Mix & Match. This show eventually led to the debut of Team B, with the addition of trainee Jung Chan-woo, under the group name iKon.

Deemed one of the "100 greatest songs in the history of Korean pop music" by Rolling Stone in 2023, "Love Scenario" topped the South Korean Gaon Digital Chart for the year 2018, and received several awards in South Korea, including the Melon Music Award for "Song of the Year", the Golden Disc Award for "Song of the Year", and the Seoul Music Award for "Best Song".
While serving as the leader of iKon, B.I released one non-promoted solo track, "One and Only" (돗대), as a B-side from iKon's album Return. In December 2015, he and fellow iKon member Jin-hwan joined the cast of JTBC's Mari and I (마리와 나).

Most of the dates were sold-out and Rolling Stone UK gave the concert in London a five out of five stars review, describing it as a "masterclass of live performance" and "one of those one-off perfect, euphoric night's out that are impossible to recreate, but ingrained as a core memory forever".

## Artistry
### Musical style

B.I has mentioned "Shake Ya Tailfeather" by Nelly, P. Diddy and Murphy Lee, "Song Cry" by Jay-Z or Eminem's "Lose Yourself" as the songs that brought about his dream of becoming a rapper, when he was at primary school. But while hip-hop and R&B remain major influences on his music, he also looks up to the "not too elaborate but still very beautiful" music of the Beatles. Rather than "lock[ing] [him]self into a certain genre," he stated in 2022 that he was intent on exploring as many as he could, always trying to "experiment with new sounds," and "make the boundaries more blurry." Thus, the songs "Savior" he composed for Lee Hi (September 2021) and "Alive" (November 2021) were inspired by jazz, "Endless Summer" (November 2022) by tropical music and EDM, "Cosmos" (November 2021) by 1980s rock and doo-wop, "Illusion" (June 2021) by lo-fi, and so on. Even though his songs usually highlight electronic sounds, he has acoustic tracks as well, such as "Remember Me" (March 2021).
Similarly, B.I explained in 2021 that he wouldn't oppose rapping and singing, as they were simply two ways of "expressing the message of [his] music." He actually sings more than he raps in his album Love or Loved Part.1 (November 2022).
In 2018, B.I discussed the process behind his songwriting, admitting, "Because I don't have much experience, I typically draw a lot of my inspiration from movies or dramas. I'm also the type to draw inspiration from things like poetry". He explained that it was a way of "making up for things I'm unable to experience or feel for myself". When asked what type of music he wanted to make, he stated, "There are just two things. Music that people can relate to and music that draws imagination. Aside from that, the reason that I compose and make music is simply because it's fun. My hobby doesn't feel like work just yet".

### Songwriting

B.I has written and co-composed all the songs in his debut single album, Midnight Blue (Love Streaming), his debut studio album, Waterfall, his half album Cosmos, and second studio album To Die For. He also contributed to the writing of all the songs on his first global EP, Love or Loved Part.1.
During his tenure as the leader of iKon, B.I was instrumental in the production and songwriting of their music. He is credited as the sole record producer and main songwriter for all of their releases. This includes the group's full-length studio albums, Welcome Back and Return, compilation album, The New Kids, and various singles and EPs such as "#WYD", New Kids: Begin, "Rubber Band", New Kids: Continue, and New Kids: The Final. B.I also wrote and co-composed four of the five songs on the group's 2020 EP, I Decide. B.I's contributions to iKon's album Return, particularly for the lead single "Love Scenario", earned him the "Songwriter of the Year" award at the 2018 Melon Music Awards.
B.I has also written songs for other artists, including MC Mong and several current and former artists under YG Entertainment, such as Epik High, Winner, Blackpink, Psy, Seungri, Lee Hi, and Eun Ji-won.
B.I was selected as a full member of the Korea Music Copyright Association (KOMCA) on January 22, 2019. As of February 2025, 128 songs are registered under his name with KOMCA.
In 2022, B.I and South Korean producers Millennium, Sihwang, Padi, and Kim Chang-hoon founded the record production and songwriting team White Noise Club under 131. In 2023, White Noise Club produced the first EP of the South Korean R&B singer-songwriter Soovi, called A Tempo, with B.I taking part in writing and composing two of the songs, including the lead track "Missing You". The same year, White Noise Club also contributed to the debut EP by South Korean boy band Pow, Favorite. B.I, in particular, wrote and co-composed two of the four songs while co-wrote and co-composed another.

## Philanthropy

Starting from 2016, B.I has been making private donations to the Seungil Hope Foundation, which is a non-profit organization that raises awareness about ALS.

On September 17, 2021, IOK Company announced that B.I had made a second donation to World Vision. B.I plans to conduct a "monthly donation project" where he will continuously donate all his music and copyright profits from his Midnight Blue (Love Streaming) and Waterfall albums. The donations will include all copyright fees, music and album sales, and content revenue generated following the album's release, and will go towards the Basic for Girls project, which aims to improve women's restroom facilities in Zambia, Africa, and provide sanitary napkins to support women's health.

## Drug allegation controversy

On June 12, 2019, it was revealed that B.I had allegedly attempted to purchase marijuana and LSD in 2016 from an undisclosed female dealer, and used the former. He was also accused of evading police charges. Following the reports, B.I posted an apology on his personal Instagram account. He acknowledged some of the allegations, explaining that he was going through "a hard and painful time and wanted something to rely on", and announced his departure from iKon. A few hours later, YG Entertainment confirmed that he had indeed left the group and terminated his exclusive contract. His appearances on television series Law of the Jungle, Grand Buda-Guest, and Stage K were edited out by the networks prior to their broadcast. The dealer was revealed to be Han Seo-hee, who was involved in drug issues with former label-mate T.O.P and received four years of probation in 2017.
In September 2019, it was reported that B.I had admitted during police questioning to violating the Act on the Control of Narcotics in 2016. In February 2020, results of a drug test conducted on B.I were released, revealing no detection of illegal drugs from a sample of B.I's body hair sent by South Korea's Gyeonggi Southern Provincial Police Agency to the National Forensic Service.
