I've been working on this for about 2 weeks - on and off. It's Tiger JK, from Korean rap group 'Drunken Tiger.' I normally don't focus on rap stars, but I've been listening to a lot of Korean music lately - and the bios I read about this guy were simply incredible.

I really admire the fact that he was able to overcome almost complete paralysis of his body by exercising - especially after the doctors told him a 100% recovery was impossible. The doctors had originally prescribed steroids for his condition, but the side effects of the medication made him feel even worse. He swelled up over 100KG and was unrecognizable to his own mother. That's when he went against his doctor's orders and began exercising.

Within 2 years of his last album, he released a new solo album in 2007 that people view as the fruit of his suffering. He has lost DJ Shine as part of the band and has a newer, more soulful sound. Best of all, he refuses to accept sympathy as a means of getting by and instead, views his suffering as 'a gift' for his artistry and lyrics.

This is my hero - if he can overcome almost complete paralysis, I can defeat my back problems. So, I dedicate this to Tiger - a victory to both of us!
