Early life On November 25, 1981, Ha Hyun-woo was born in Jangsu County, Jangsu, North Jeolla Province. He moved to Ansan, Gyeonggi Province at around age 7, where he spent his elementary, middle, and high school days. Throughout his youth, he tended to be introspective until middle school. His voice did not change drastically during puberty. As a result, he was able to produce high-pitched sounds with ease. Unfortunately, his time spent during his youth was rather unpleasant. He remembers his puberty as being a time of defeat, helplessness, and tearfulness. He held a self-image as an outsider, which had a deep influence on his self-esteem, even after passing through puberty.

South Korean Pop Rock Singers
South is one of the cardinal directions or compass points. The direction is the opposite of north and is perpendicular to both east and west. Etymology The word ''south'' comes from Old English ''sūþ'', from earlier Proto-Germanic ''*sunþaz'' ("south"), possibly related to the same Proto-Indo-European root that the word ''sun'' derived from. Some languages describe south in the same way, from the fact that it is the direction of the sun at noon (in the Northern Hemisphere), like Latin meridies 'noon, south' (from medius 'middle' + dies 'day', cf English meridional), while others describe south as the right-hand side of the rising sun, like Biblical Hebrew תֵּימָן teiman 'south' from יָמִין yamin 'right', Aramaic תַּימנַא taymna from יָמִין yamin 'right' and Syriac ܬܰܝܡܢܳܐ taymna from ܝܰܡܝܺܢܳܐ yamina (hence the name of Yemen, the land to the south/right of the Levant).
