Singer Hwasa revealed an unexpected story from her childhood where her exceptional appetite led to a surprising opportunity.

In an episode of SBS 'My Little Old Boy' aired on the 9th, Hwasa was shown sharing stories with Han Hyo-jin.

That day, Han Hyo-jin asked Hwasa, "Did you eat well even when you were young?" Hwasa replied, "I ate so much that I often felt like I had good fortune," recalling an incident from her childhood at the school cafeteria.

Hwasa said, "If you greeted the ladies well in the cafeteria, they would give you more food. If you say 'Hello,' they'd give you an extra sausage; if not, you wouldn't." She continued, "Our family had three daughters, so our stomachs were completely full. When there was something delicious, we couldn't eat much of it before it was all gone. That's why I always greeted loudly at the cafeteria to get more food."

The cafeteria staff noticed Hwasa's behavior and treated her especially well. Hwasa revealed, "Then one day, I received an offer for a musical," surprising Han Hyo-jin.

When Han Hyo-jin asked, "What does the cafeteria lady have to do with a musical?" Hwasa explained, "The acquaintance of the cafeteria lady was the director who planned the musical."

Hwasa's habit of greeting loudly had reached the director. She said, "They told me, 'There's a girl at our school with a clear, bright voice.' I went to audition right away, and the play was 'Janghwa Hongryeon Jeon.' I immediately became Hongryeon."

Hearing this, Han Hyo-jin exclaimed, "You were the lead!" Hwasa recalled, "It was a huge musical. Other friends had impressive careers with many achievements."

Han Hyo-jin joked, "So you were pulled from the cafeteria, weren't you?" This made everyone laugh. Hwasa added, "I was chosen because I greeted well. And honestly, I wanted to eat more delicious food, so that's why I greeted them." She concluded that everything started with her appetite, adding more laughter.

Han Hyo-jin remarked, "Even after that, every time you ate something, it became a turning point in your life." Hwasa agreed, saying, "I even seriously wondered back then, 'Is there really something special about me?' I thought, 'Am I truly different?'"
