Anne,

 Normally the superclass take care of  painting the background but since
you are overriding the paintComponent method the superclass can't  do it
for you. So you can paint the background yourself  with something like:

public void paintComponent(Graphics g)
    {
        Dimension d = this.getSize();
        g.setColor(Color.pink);
        g.fillRect(0, 0, d.width, d.height);
        g.setColor(Color.black);
        g.drawString("hello", 50,50);
    }

 or let the superclass do it:

public void paintComponent(Graphics g)
   {
     super.paintComponent(g);
     g.setColor(Color.black);
     g.drawString("hello", 50,50);
   }
