Early life

edit

Han Sun-hwa was born on October 6, 1990,[11] in Buk-gu, Busan, South Korea.[1] She has one younger sister and one younger brother, Han Seung-woo.[5] Han's mother gave birth to her at the young age of 20.[12] As the eldest child, she took care of her younger siblings by cooking them food and tutoring them when both of their parents had to work. During the East Asian Financial Crisis in 1998, Han's family struggled and recalled that her dream of being an entertainer was getting dim.[12]

Ever since she was young, Han had an interest in art and had always dreamed of becoming an artist. She took after-school art programs in elementary school and managed to win several awards from various art competitions. However, after seeing one of BoA's performances on television, she realized her dream was singing and dancing.[13]

Following her setback, Han went back to being an ordinary high school student. However, there was a big change in the way Han's peers looked at her:[15] due to false rumors, they thought she was a JYP trainee; Han admitted she became afraid of people because of the jealous stares. Teacher Sung Yong-ho, in charge of the school choir, helped Han by giving her chances to participate in competitions; then, she was admitted to Baekjae Art College.[15] A few days before the college entrance ceremony, she got a call from an agent who watched Superstar Survival and became a trainee in TS Entertainment.

"I have somewhat of a wacky and laid back personality, and especially when I'm on set, I think I naturally become the "White Paper" character. Even when we were filming, the wrong answer tended to come to mind first. Of course there were times when I did it just for fun."

—Han, on her "White Paper" character.[49]

"White paper", or "baekji" in Korean, is a term coined by netizens and the cast of Invincible Youth, which is an English equivalent of the "dumb blonde" persona portrayed by Han in that show.[30][50] She played a huge role in increasing Secret's popularity through Invincible Youth and other variety shows because of her dumb blonde persona.[30][49][50]
