PUBLISHED:  Sep 16, 2015
DESCRIPTION:
Today, both Tymee and Swings are well-known rappers who are on good terms with one another. 9 years ago, however, when they were both unknown, they had an intense feud:

TL;DR: Swings dissed Tymee's favorite rapper, Tymee dissed Swings, Swings tried to kiss Tymee, Tymee got mad, Swings got defensive, Swings criticized online, Swings apologized online, Tymee didn't accept apology, Swings apologized in person and in a song, Tymee accepted apology, all is good now.

---------------------------------------------
Back in the days when Tymee had the stage name 'Napper', Swings dissed UMC in one of his songs. UMC was a rapper that Napper deeply admired and respected. Hating the idea of her favorite artist getting insulted by Swings, she responded to it by writing a diss song for Swings as his birthday gift. This song is nowhere to be found because it happened such a long time ago.

Shortly after, Napper coincidentally encountered Deep Flow and Swings together. Deep Flow knew that Napper and Swings were on bad terms, so he tried to break the ice by improving their relationship. After greetings were exchanged and they were introduced to one another, Swings offered Napper a rap battle. When Napper turned down his suggestion, Deep Flow jokingly told Swings to give Napper a kiss. However, Swings actually tried to put it into action, causing Napper to feel harassed. Napper thought Swings owed her an apology, but Swings just shrugged and laughed it off.

This is when the two started colliding. Napper wrote a criticism post dedicated to his offensive behavior on her Cyworld (popular blogging platform). When Swings had read it himself, he fought her in his own blog response. Swings stated his thoughts by saying, "It was a joke. Who kisses someone on the first time meeting?" Napper disagreed with him by saying, "No, he would've forcefully kissed me if I didn't avoid it!"

Later on, the incident continued to stir up controversy as the two rappers release diss songs aimed at each other. It is unknown which song of Swings was directed to Napper, but "Observe" (2006) was what Napper wrote for him.

The controversy between the two rappers quickly gathered attention. Swings received a tsunami of negative response from the netizens for his behavior, making Swings apologize online. Napper initially didn't accept the apology because it seemed like he did it just for the sake of escaping all the criticism and bashing.

Later on, he made a more genuine apology in person. Also in a song called "Thank You's & Sorry's"(2008) Swings mentioned, "I sincerely apologize to you once again, I'm sorry, Napper." As a result, both of them were able to resolve the misunderstanding and grew to be on good terms.

According to Naver, Napper and Swings both deleted all of the traces of the conflict in their blogs. There isn't much information available in the internet because this incident happened during a time when Tymee and Swings weren't very well known.
