Singer Ha Chun-hwa revealed a little-known story about nearly naturalizing as a Japanese citizen during her childhood.
On the 24th, the national singer Ha Chun-hwa, who marked her 65th anniversary in the music industry, appeared on tvN's variety program 'You Quiz on the Block'.
On this day, Yoo Jae-suk expressed his amazement, mentioning Ha Chun-hwa's titles as the youngest, first, and most numerous to have entered the music industry at the age of 6 and even been featured in the Guinness Book of World Records.
Ha Chun-hwa revealed that she sang 200 popular songs when she was 3 years old, saying, "My aunts were trying to see how many songs I could sing, so they wrote them down, and I sang them all," surprising everyone.

She also mentioned her father's foresight that made her the top singer, stating, "At that time, everyone was worried when they heard I was going into popular music, but my father said, 'This child can only do singing. We must raise her,' and we moved to Seoul before I entered elementary school. He enrolled me in Dongwha Art Academy on the 4th floor of Dongwha Department Store in Gangbuk when I was 5."
She continued, "When I sang, all the department store people gathered. The buzz was tremendous. They said I was the youngest singer in the world to release an album and debut. Japanese pro wrestler Rikidozan heard my song and came to Korea. They offered to take me to Japan and raise me, but the condition was naturalization, so I refused."
