MAMAMOO’s Hwasa House
Hwasa lives in an apartment. She moved her bed and placed it in front of the TV in her living room. As soon as she opens her eyes and wakes up from sleep, she turns on the television. She loves to watch Leslie Cheung, a popular Hong Kong actor in the nineties. When she sees Leslie Cheung on her TV, her face lights up and her smile opens widely. She spends time watching TV while lying sideways. Her favorite breakfast is combination of salty snacks and milk. Rather than eating corn cereal, she prefers common Korean snacks. Her kitchen is clean and tidy, but she rarely cooks. There are many snacks and bottles of alcohol around the kitchen table. When she opens her refrigerator, there are many beverages and more alcohol. As soon as Park Na-rae saw her refrigerator, she smiled and looked at her. She knows that Hwasa likes to drink. Hwasa eats her breakfast in front of the TV, on her bed. She looks very different in her normal daily looks. When her strong and tough makeup gets removed, she turns into a normal, next door neighbor girl. Since her hair is so long, she rolls it on her head and ties it into a big wad on her head. She tied it loosely, so it moves around when she walks and does her things. As soon as she finished her breakfast, she jumped into her bed and was lying in front of the TV. Occasionally, she scratched itchy parts of her feet. Members of the Rainbow Family noticed that her nails are very long and pointed. Hwasa said that she likes her long and pointed nails. They are very useful. After finishing her meal, she takes out her dining table and puts her makeup bag on it. She finishes her morning routine by applying makeup.

Hwasa’s Love For Gopchang
Just like any other young Korean woman, Hwasa loves eating beef gopchang (small intestine). Rather than eating pork belly, she prefers gopchang. She said that she loves eating all kinds of beef entrails: liver, heart, and intestines. Being a confident and tough woman, she never hesitates in eating barbecue alone, which is often considered a taboo in Korea. Eating alone is one thing that Koreans hate in general, and eating barbeque alone is one thing that many Koreans avoid at all costs. While taking a stroll on the shopping street, she goes into a gopchang restaurant. Without hesitation, she orders two portions of gopchang and two portions of beef heart. Normally, Koreans who eat alone prefer to sit in the corner, but Hwasa confidently sits in the front of the restaurant. She sits impatiently while the restaurant owner roasts her gopchang. Whenever the slices are well cooked, she picks them up and puts them in her mouth, and smiles brightly. Her face looks happy and satisfied. Before finishing the roasted intestine, she orders gopchang stew and finishes by ordering gopchang fried rice. The episode of her eating gopchang became an instant hit at the time of its airing. On that day, Koreans went out to gopchang restaurants and caused a sudden high demand for gupchang. Hwasa got an appreciation from gopchang association for the episode.

Spending Time With Her Family
Hwasa invited I Live Alone to show her family and hometown in Namwon. Her father waited for her around the neighborhood, and when he saw her, he grabbed her hand. Both of them held hands while walking around the neighborhood. They greeted everyone at the roadside, since they knew each other since she was a child. The Rainbow Family members noticed that Hwasa and her father always held hands when they walked with each other. Hwasa said that her father loved holding hands with her.

After eating and enjoying family conversation, Hwasa and her father went outside and rode a cultivator. She enjoyed some precious time with her father while riding the cultivator. Hwasa recalled her middle school days in the rural area. She and Wheein dreamed of becoming singers. She used her father’s phone to download thousands of songs, and it cost a lot of money for all the music. At first, her father disagreed with her decision to pursue a career in music. She also said that her father borrowed money to help her pursue her dream of becoming a singer. However, as soon as she earned enough money, she paid back all their debt. Hwasa and her father frequently contacted each other. Recently, it was difficult to contact her due to her busy schedules. Her father told viewers that probably her hardest time was when she lived in a rooftop apartment. The apartment was extremely hot in the summer and very cold in the winter. When he visited her apartment, he saw stagnant water at certain spots and they didn’t remove the water. Hwasa and her friend never cleaned up their apartment, and it was very dirty.

Hwasa and Arcade Games
On her big day off, Hwasa spend time resting in her house. After a good afternoon nap, she got up and went to her arcade game. She removed all the coins and put them back into the arcade machine. It was enough to play 20 rounds of the game. She concentrated and completely focused on the game. Throughout the gaming time, she yelled, glared, and smiled at the screen. After a couple of rounds, she became bored, unplugged the cable and moved to her favorite place, her sofa-bed.. Resting and enjoying herself at home is her most precious moment.
Hwasa Tries To Make Art From Orange Skin
After spending time promoting her solo single Twit, Hwasa spent a whole day resting in her house. Lying in her bed while watching TV in her bed-living room, Hwasa enjoyed precious resting time. Tucked inside a cozy blanket, she lay on her back, eating tangerines and watching TV. Suddenly, she woke up and grabbed a book. The title of the book was Art of Peeling Tangerines. It was like a Korean children’s book, with lots of pictures and drawings. Quickly, she moved to the sofa and tied her long her into her trademark hairstyle, the messy bun. As she opened the pages, she found a beginner’s project for making art from orange peels. She chose a bunny shape made from orange peels that was categorized as one star, or a beginner level. She scanned the whole page and looked for the instructions. Rather than finding the instructions, she found some rather useless biological information about a bunny. She got irritated when finding the information rather than directions. Feeling determined, she started drawing lines according to the instruction. When she started to cut the peel according to the lines, she cut the peel too deep and juice squirted into her eyes. After a short, painful moment, she finished cutting the lines. Since it was her first project, only the head part resembled a bunny head while other parts were too out of shape. She moved on from one-star to the two-star difficulty level, then all the way to the five-stars difficulty level. Her skill gradually improved as she tried each difficulty level. Other than her singing talent, perhaps she can try improving her crafting talent, because she seemed to have a good hand at making things.
