SBS 'My Ugly Baby' aired on the 30th featured singer Hwang Ga-ram, the main character of 'I'm a Firefly'.
On this day, Hwang Garam was surprised by his salty daily life of washing his face in a narrow sink and mixing lotion with water. In addition, he nagged his student and roommate, who has been living together for 10 years, from the morning, saying he wanted to save on gas and living expenses.
In particular, even when shopping for daily necessities, Hwang Garam showed his extreme salty moments. Although he said he had to buy tissues, he emphasized that "Honestly, I wash with water after seeing a big deal," and he was adamant that body wash is not necessary if only the main parts are cleaned well.
Hwang Garam, who has no choice but to live like a pig because of the debt he has accumulated over his long life of obscurity, said "I'm sorry. I have to pay all of them, but I have too much debt," he said, expressing his displeasure. Even though the song "I'm a Firefly" is ranked No. 1 on the music charts every day, he said that his income is still 0 won. "The profit doesn't matter much to me. Singing performers get 6 percent, but 20 performers split it up" Anyway, the money has never come in because it has not been settled yet. That's why I have to go to a part-time job again today."

The mother, who first learned that her son had been homeless for 147 days through the broadcast, confessed, `I thought it would be about a week at the longest, but I don't know how much I cried with my father without knowing that I did it for so long.'
Hwang Garam "Actually started homelessness to save money. At first, I slept in a jjimjilbang, but the price was too high. So the wind came out warm on the roof of the jjimjilbang, so I went to the rooftop and slept." He could have continued to stay in a church or something, but he noticed. I washed in the sink of the public bathroom after staying like that. It was 1,000 won for a roll of gimbap, so you have to eat a roll of gimbap"Now I'm in my 70s, but I weighed 49 kilograms when I was homeless. However, it was more difficult to be cold and not to wash up than not to be able to eat," he said, causing regret.
