The poet is revealed to be Rap Monster, who is now one of the hottest idol rappers in the industry. The amazing poem written by the 12 year old Rap Monster reads as follows.
Korean Peninsula Tiger, and Unification
Not a small rabbit but
a scary tiger.
scratch is made on the tiger's waist.
Hurt on the waist
struggling
one tiger continues to suffer.
China, and Japan, and United States
all looked down on us, and said we are not a tiger but only a small rabbit.
But the day when the scratch on the tiger's waist washes away
the world will not be able to look down on us.
South will be like the north,
North will be like the south,
The day when the two colors on the Korean flag
unite and become purple,
70 million citizens
will become one
and look up to the sky with hands together,
That day will come one day.
Marching one step by step
to the place called unification,
We are not a small rabbit but
one brave tiger.
To a place where we are under one sky even in different places.
