Ko Hye-mi appeared on Mnet audition program 'Voice Korea' Season 1 in 2012 and reached the top four, drawing attention for her unique tone and appealing singing style. After the broadcast, he joined singer Gil's agency and made his official debut in 2015 with the single 「Ugly Doll」 under the name of"MIWOO".




The deceased also unraveled the message of his own song based on his experiences in school. "The background of the song was the way everyone tried to be the same when they were ostracized even if it was a little different."

The musical activities were steady. He participated in featureings such as Lee Sang's 'Zuma Lantern' and Gary's 'Wind' and gained stage experience as a chorus of Han Young-ae band. Following the single 「Flowers rot」 in July 2019, he wrote, composed, and composed his first mini-album 's.s.t" in August, expanding his scope into a singer-songwriter.

The lyrics of the song shared by the deceased read 'I'm sitting in my room. I'm completely alone. I miss you every day. But I don't want any more. It's crumbling slowly as it crumbles and corrodes and falls to the floor. It is time to say goodbye.




Son Seung-yeon, who also appeared on Voice Korea, expressed her sorrow, saying, `My sister was the most unique singer I knew, an artist, and a natural-born musician.'
