Singer Hwang Min-ho gifted a lively morning.
Hwang Min-ho appeared on KBS1's "Morning Garden" on the 25th for the "Tuesday Special Guest" segment.
That day, Hwang Min-ho opened the stage with "Vibrantly" and conveyed vibrant energy from the morning with a lively drumming performance accompanied by powerful singing. Hwang Min-ho revealed regarding the splendid drumming performance, "Park Seo-jin said, 'You did well,'" and added, "It's been just over a year since I started drumming. I wanted to play at least one instrument on stage, but my brother recommended the drum."
He said, "Since then, I watched Seo-jin's videos, and they were so much fun. I practiced independently and self-taught myself. Drum playing is really enjoyable. I don't feel stressed, but the feeling of playing is fun."
Additionally, Hwang Min-ho mentioned, "I recently moved to a detached house, and the 4th floor is my studio. Every morning when I wake up, I automatically play the drum. I don't eat breakfast, and when my mom tells me to eat after playing the drum, that's when I eat."
Recently active on "King of the Current 2," Hwang Min-ho confessed, "I didn't really have high expectations because 'King of the Current 2' features top singers in Korea. Instead, I participated with a mindset of learning," and he pointed out that the most challenging stage was "Umma."
Regarding why he chose "Umma," Hwang Min-ho explained, "I received the MVP award for 'Sim Bwa Dda Sim Bwa Sseo' and sang it as the ace of the team competition. I felt a bit of pressure and tension because I wanted to go up with my brother and uncles."
Hwang Min-ho continued, "All the songs were chosen by my father. Since I was young, my dad picked the songs, so in terms of selection, he is the player," and noted, "If I practice, I can sing all the songs."
In particular, Hwang Min-ho said, "My talent resembles my father's. Dad also sings well, and everyone on my father's side sings well. During holidays, we have singing competitions, and every time my dad and family members from his side support me and sweep up prizes or awards. That's why some relatives use surnames like Kim instead of Hwang to avoid suspicion," and added, "I'm doing broadcasts without taking allowance from my father. If I earn money, I want to buy him a house, and I want to buy him a car so he can commute comfortably."
Meanwhile, Hwang Min-ho's new song "Mangnani" was revealed for the first time on stage prior to its official release. He introduced, ""Mangnani" is a song about my mother that beautifully expresses a parent's deep affection and love for their child. It likens the child to 'Mangnani,' expressing feelings of apology and love towards my mother," and delivered a heartfelt performance of "Mangnani" that moved the audience.
On another note, Hwang Min-ho recently appeared on MBN's "King of the Current 2," advancing to the third round of the finals. He is currently meeting fans through various broadcasts and content, and he will release his new song "Mangnani" on March 1.
