Oyun-Erdene was born in Ulaanbaatar, the capital city, but grew up in Berkh, Khentii. He took Luvsannamsrai, his grandfather’s name, as his surname. Oyun-Erdene’s grandfather Luvsannamsrai was a Buddhist abbot (Mongolian: хамба лам), a master chess player and a competent instructor of mathematics, Mongolian language, and Old Mongolian script. He was the first principal of a public school in Mörön Soum in the Khentii Province of Mongolia. At the age of 21, Oyun-Erdene began his political career when serving as the Head of the Governor’s Office in the Village of Berkh, Khentii.

He also held various positions at the Mongolian People’s Party (the MPP) starting as the Head of the Political Department. He worked as the President of the Social Democracy Mongolian Youth Association, a party-affiliated youth organization of Mongolia. He wrote his first book, “Vision”, in 2005. After graduating from Harvard University in 2015 at age of 35, he published his second book named “Aziin Khuleg Uls” which translated as “The Steed country of Asia”. In this book he addressed a 30 year-development policy for Mongolia. He also founded “The Steed country of Asia” National Policy Research Institute that same year. In 2020 Oyun-Erdene also initiated and led the process for development of “Vision 2050”, Mongolia's 30-year policy agenda and had it approved by the State Great Khural (Parliament).
