Early life[]
Yuk Ji-dam was born in Daegu on March 10, 1997. In the years she attended school, she was reportedly bullied and made fun of because of her dark skin.[2] Eventually, she grew inspired by Yoon Mi-rae's song "Black Happiness", which is about growing half-black in an Asian conservative country. This led to her interest in hip hop music.
