When I was a little kid, I lived in a number of homes with my mom and brother, along with my mom’s family. At the time, my dad was working in different states and overseas, so we didn’t spend much time together until I was eight, and my brother was five, years old. During that time I became thankful for my mother, represented in the song “Mama” by BTS, and all the sacrifices she made to raise my brother and I. In those years, and beyond that, she had supported me, endlessly worked for my success, and created a world for me, in which I can be happy. I did not come out to my mother for a year after I discovered myself. My mother was very supportive in everything I did, including singing, dancing, art and the many other extracurriculars I participated
