Doh Kyung Soo, better known by his stage name D.O., is a South Korean singer, actor, and member of the South Korean-Chinese boy group EXO.

D.O. has been singing since primary school and was an avid participant in local singing competitions throughout his high school career. In 2010, he was recommended to audition for SM Entertainment after winning at a local singing festival. He subsequently became an SM Entertainment trainee during his last two years of high school.

D.O. made his acting debut in the movie "Cart". He also sang the OST "Crying Out" for the movie. D.O. was ranked number one by critics among 40 idol-actors who participated in dramas in 2014. Later, in 2014, D.O. made his small-screen debut playing a supporting role in the SBS drama "It's Okay, That's Love", where he was praised for his performance and was later nominated for the Best New Actor award at the 51st Baeksang Arts Awards. His role in the movie My Annoying Brother won him Best New Actor at the Blue Dragon Awards.

D.O. enlisted for his mandatory military service on July 1, 2019. On the same day, he released the single "That's Okay", a song that he co-wrote through the SM Station project. D.O. concluded his service on January 25. 2021.

In 2020, D.O. made his musical theatre debut in a rerun of the original military musical "Return: The Promise of the Day", playing the role of Seung Ho.

D.O. was selected as one of the 200 actors (100 males and 100 females) to feature in the "Actor is Present - Korean Actors 200" campaign run by the Korean Film Council (KOFIC).

D.O. debuted as a soloist on July 26, 2021, with the release of his first extended play titled "Empathy" and its lead single "Rose”.

At the 32nd Buil Film Awards, he won the Star Of The Year Award (Male) for his movie The Moon.

In October 2023, ahead of his contract expiration with SM Entertainment in November 2023, it was announced that Doh Kyung Soo would leave SM and has set up the company SooSoo Entertainment with a longtime manager for his solo activities and acting. His activities with EXO will still be managed by SM.
