He confirmed to audience that he and his family moved from Korea to the United States when he's just 12, but he hasn't got his green card until years later. "Imagine your life without green card," he said. "Now I'm able to sing in front of all of you guys. I'm really happy."
In addition to visiting "Live! with Kelly", Heejun also came to "Access Hollywood" to sing the same song. He additionally did an interview, talking about getting the boot from the "Idol" and preparing for upcoming tour with the other top 10 contestants.
