[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Park Hee-eun] Hwang Min-woo, who was active as 'Little Psy,' opened up about his distress over comments related to his mother.
On the 14th, on MBN's 'Voice Trot,' 'Little Psy' Hwang Min-woo chose Park Hyun-bin's 'Dancing Queen' for his performance against actress Park Hee-jin.
Hwang Min-woo's younger brother, Hwang Min-ho, made a surprise appearance on stage to complete the performance. Judge Nam Jin said about the brothers' stage, "I hope you become a world star who can shine globally."
Following this, an interview with Hwang Min-woo's parents was conducted. Kim Yong-man asked the parents, "From whom did your son inherit his talent?" In response, Hwang Min-woo's mother answered in her awkward Korean, "I have no talent, but Min-woo's father seems to have talent."
When Kim Yong-man asked, "Don't you have anything you want to say to your parents?" Hwang Min-woo hesitated and said, "Actually, my mother is Vietnamese," adding, "When I was active as 'Little Psy,' I received many malicious comments. It's okay if they were directed at me, but there were hurtful comments aimed at my mother, such as 'Go back to Vietnam.' It hurt my heart a lot, and I felt sorry for my mother," shedding tears.
Hwang Min-woo continued, "Mom, I will do my best and work hard, so please watch over me. I love you," which brought tears to the other participants. Hwang Min-woo's younger brother, Hwang Min-ho, also expressed his feelings, saying, "Mom, Dad, I love you." Ultimately, Hwang Min-woo won the match against Park Hee-jin and advanced to the 4th round.
Meanwhile, Hwang Min-woo became known to the public as 'Little Psy' after appearing in singer Psy's music video for the song 'Gangnam Style' in the past.
