On tvN's entertainment program 'Uquiz on the Block', which aired on the 5th, singer Hwang Garam of 'I'm a Firefly' appeared.
Singer Hwang Garam in his 14th year since his debut, who dominated various charts with "I'm a Firefly". Hwang Ga-ram, who was a Taekwondo player before becoming a singer, said "I had a pretty good score, but my legs were broken in four, so I played the gout for more than a year. I had a bone injury outside, so I started doing it when I was seven years old, and I thought I couldn't continue it."
Hwang Garam, who went to Seoul directly from Masan after the college entrance exam. Before going to Seoul, Hwang Garam came up with 2 million won by working hard to make amethyst jjimjilbang. What will happen if I go to Seoul with this money? "I wanted to " and "I was standing in the playground of Hongdae and sang when I made eye contact with someone. I have to spend only 10,000 won a day, but they spend a lot of money. I didn't sleep at night and slept in Hongdae playground during the day. That was the beginning of homelessness" he recalled.

In the meantime, Hwang Garam practiced singing consistently. Hwang Ga-ram says, "I need to get a space to practice singing." I thought about it and got a warehouse. It's not a place where people can live, but I lived with things on the street. The friends I got to know there gathered together and practiced singing. "
Hwang Garam, who finally debuted after 7 years of improving his skills. Hwang Garam released 60 songs since his debut. I sang 40 OST songs, but it didn't work no matter what. I kept working part-time even after my debut. I worked part-time until recently." After that, he passed the Pinocchio vocal audition, but he was frustrated with the outbreak of COVID-19 in three months. Hwang Garam confessed, "'I feel like I'm telling you one last time that this is not the way it should be.'" "'It was so hard because of the memories that had not been completed up to this point.'"
In the meantime, the hit song we met last year 'I'm Firefly' "The original song is Jungsik's band, but I liked it so much that I covered it."I thought I was like a bug a lot. I cried a lot when I recorded it" he said.

Hwang Garam bowed his head and burst into tears as soon as he was told to say a word to him in the past. "It takes too long, so don't try to do well in one try. Valuable things don't work quickly, so I hope you work harder." he said. Yoo Jae-seok also wiped away tears and "I tried not to cry, but I cried. How hard it must have been. I don't think it's possible to say that it's hard"I hope that someday Hwang Garam will become a bigger person and tell these stories in songs and mouth for a longer time."
