> Trivia
> ------
>
>
> * **His age has been confidential since his first day of streaming.** He said he was going to reveal his age when he gets at least 10 views on Korean AfreecaTV but never happened for few years since he was mostly on Global Afreeca and YouTube, so his identity will still be kept unknown. He feels quite uncomfortable whenever people ask him and/or assume his age constantly. ~~The age *will* be secret no matter what from now on. lmao~~ However, he is beyond the minimum age of drinking in the US, and identifies himself as a Generation Y.
> * The reason he initially chose the username *Snapback* on Global Afreeca was simply because the username was not taken.
> * One time on Facebook page, someone tried to steal the page URL by threatening SNAP to change it to something else, claiming it's his "trademark." However, nothing has ever changed.
> * Even though he was in Australia for only 3 months and a half, he started picking up and appears to be having an Australian accent while streaming and probably in real life as well, but he mostly speaks with an American accent. Because of his thick Aussie accent sometimes, he has got mistaken for an Australian. ~~Ayyyy Australian-certified.~~
> * He uses the word "lmao" a lot, for unknown reasons, pronouncing it "luh-MAO".
> * In spite of SNAP being American, he likes Vegemite, but his fans seem to be disgusted for some reason.
