  "textContent": "**SOURCE: 앤더슨 팩 “전처가 한국인, 두 아들 한국어 잘 해” (만날텐데)**\n\nAnderson .Paak revealed that his two sons are deeply immersed in Korean culture.\n\nRecently, Anderson .Paak made an appearance alongside Jay Park on Sung Sikyung's Youtube channel.\n\nAfter hearing that Sung Sikyung’s English name is 'Jeffrey,' **Anderson .Paak** said, _\"I just came up with a Korean name for myself:**Park Bangsang**. **Park** is my last name. When you hear **Bang** , it gets you high, that's the vibe of my music too. And **Sang** because it sounds similar to 'song.'\"_ In response, Jay Park recommended the name 'Park Taesung.'\n\n**Jay Park** then suggested,_\"Now that you have a Koran name,**tell us about your background.** \"_\n\n**Anderson .Paak** said, _\"**My mom was actually born in Korea in 1951**. She was one of the **abandoned children** during the **Korean War**. She grew up in **Compton** , **California**. She was adopted at age six, and I was born there. I have two older sisters and one younger sister.\"_\n\nHe continued, _\"**I didn’t know anything about my Korean side until I met the mother of my two sons** , who's from Gangnam. **My two sons speak fluent Korean.** I also have to keep reminding them that they’re also **Black**. They're totally into **Korean culture**. I even appeared in the movie**'K-POPS!'** with my **oldest son**.” _\n\nAnderson .Paak added that he knows a few **Korean phrases** , jokingly saying,_\"'Honey, what’s wrong with you?' 'Wanna die?' 'Just kidding, just kidding,'\"_ making everyone laugh.\n\nHe said, \"_I feel like**I've learned just the necessary words, but I need to learn more.** Absolutely. I’m learning. For some reason, I think I can pick up Korean faster compared to other languages.\"_\n\nHe also shared, _\"**My ex-wife was Korean.** When my kids were really young, I told her to talk to them in **Korean** because I wanted them to be **bilingual**. As mixed-race kids get older, sometimes they don’t want to speak Korean in front of other people. So I told them that it’s their **superpower**.\"_ He continued, _\"**My wife is always speaking Korean to the kids.** Their grandfather goes to Korea a lot and really loves it. The kids spend time in Korea and talk with their grandparents there.\"_\n\n**Anderson .Paak** was born to an **African-American father** and a **Korean-American mother.** He later formed the duo **Silk Sonic** with **Bruno Mars** , achieving a **No. 1** hit on the **Billboard Hot 100** and winning **Record of the Year** and**Song of the Year** at the **Grammy Awards.**",
