Early Life and Gaming Beginnings
Very little is known about BoxBox’s life before his rise to fame, as he has not shared a lot of information regarding his childhood, education, and family.

“” (LoL) is a multiplayer online battle arena developed by Riot Games. The game is free to play but allows players to purchase cosmetics with the use of real money. In the game, players assume the role of a summoner who controls a champion with unique skills and abilities. He then teams up with other summoner controlled champions to fight against an enemy team of summoners. The goal for each game is to usually destroy to heart of the other team’s base. Throughout the game, players can get stronger through gaining experience and items. The video game has gained a lot of critical acclaim since its release and has a very strong competitive scene.
Streaming Career
BoxBox played using a Korean name which means “Mistake”, however, many people started to call him BoxBox due to how the Korean characters look like two boxes side by side. He started on the platform Twitch during high school, and after matriculating decided to take a year off to pursue streaming full-time. Twitch is a live streaming platform, and a subsidiary of Amazon. It was launched in 2011 as a spin-off of the general interest streaming platform Justin.tv. Twitch would prove to be the most popular option, with Justin later shutting down YouTube to put more efforts towards the development of Twitch.
The platform is the main hub for the broadcast of eSports competitions. In recent years, it has introduced other forms of streaming as well. There are over two million broadcasters monthly and over 15 million using the website on a daily basis, and reports an average of a million in concurrent users. His efforts were successful, and he gained a huge followership online, which led him to be hired by the professional gaming group Velocity eSports as a substitute for their LoL team.
