INFINITE's Hoya discussed his family on the recent recording of MBC's 'Quiz to Change the World.'

He said, "After I dropped out of high school without telling my parents, all ties with my father were severed."  He was revealed to have engaged himself in school work with the hopes of entering a police academy, but decided to drop out after he started to dream of becoming a singer in the third year of middle school.

He said, "My relationship with my father was never good, but it worsened after I dropped out of school.  We did not contact each other for eight years."

He also said, "When I was young, my parents bought me everything I wanted, so I thought we were well off, but I found out we had a hard time and a lot of debt to the point there was a red foreclosure sticker on our house.  As I started to earn money, I paid off all that debt."
