Geonroung Park is now a K-pop artist. He is 17 years old. Many people know him as the "Baby Shark Boy." He became famous because of a video. This video is called "Baby Shark Dance." He was only seven years old when he filmed the video. In the video, he did hand movements to a children's song. The video is very famous on YouTube. According to The Guardian, it has more than 17.2 billion views. It was the number one video on YouTube for 69 consecutive months.
The song "Baby Shark" is very old. People believe it started at summer camps in North America in the 1970s. Now, Park wants to show a new side of himself. He has a new song called "Wave." This song is different from his old video. It starts with the "Baby Shark" melody, but then it changes. It becomes a modern electropop song. This helps him move from a child star to a real singer.
It is not easy to change from a viral video star to a professional K-pop artist. Park must show people that he is a serious musician. He has a very large audience because of his past success. However, he also wants to have his own identity. He is no longer a small child. He is a teenager ready for the music industry. People will watch him to see his new career. This is a big moment for Geonroung Park.
