Description
A Hip-Hop-loving executive, top Hip-Hop music producer and top scriptwriters bring the first Hip-Hop TV drama made in Korea
At the age of ten, Shi-on moved to America with his parents. He was unfamiliar with his new surroundings, the people and the language. But then hip-hop captivated him and it seeded a dream within him.
Pursuing his dream, he returned to Korea at the age of 20.
He thought signing with the Vita music label would help his rap career but they only took advantage of him. He spent five years ghostwriting songs, hidden behind the spotlight.
Although he had worked hard to reach his dream, there was little to show for his effort. However, a miraculous turning point happened in his life.
