He later joined the karaoke troupe at Daegu University, where he was profoundly inspired by folk icon Kim Kwang-seok. This experience solidified his decision to pursue a career in music. After completing his military service, Bak officially debuted as a solo artist in 1997 under the name We Are Here, Park Chang-geun. Over the years, he built a strong following, performing in university districts and folk music venues. His discography includes albums like Anti Mythos (1999), 무지개 내린 날개위의 순간 (2011), and Bak Chang Geun BEST 20 (2022). His 2022 Nationwide Tour Concert Live Album captured his emotional performances and dedication to live music.
