Yuk Ji-dam (; sometimes known as Jidam () or Yukji (); born March 10, 1997) is a South Korean rapper from Daegu. She gained popularity with her participation on the hip hop TV competitions Show Me The Money and Unpretty Rapstar. She returned to Unpretty Rapstar 3 as a contestant.
Early life Yuk Ji-dam was born in Daegu on March 10, 1997. In the years she attended school, she was reportedly bullied and made fun of because of her dark skin. Eventually, she grew inspired by Yoon Mi-rae's song "Black Happiness", which is about growing half-black in an Asian conservative country. This led to her interest in hip hop music.
