HoSo Terra Toma was introduced to drag by watching Kim Chi compete on RuPaul's Drag Race.[2] Her stage name consists of "HoSo", which is derived from the Korean-language phrase for the term "little faggot" (homo so-nyeon, Korean: 호모 소년), and "Terra Toma" in reference to a teratoma tumor, which was inspired by her time undergoing chemotherapy for lymphoma.[4] She competed on the fourth season of The Boulet Brothers' Dragula (2021) and the first season of The Boulet Brothers' Dragula: Titans (2022), where she placed as a runner-up both times.[5][6] She is the show's first South Korean contestant.[7] In 2023, HoSo appeared in Jazmin Bean's music video "Favorite Toy".[8]
