Singer Park Seo-jin revealed his connection with Lim Young-woong.
On the 31st, Park Seo-jin appeared as a guest on KBS2’s ‘Problematic Men in the Rooftop Room’.
On that day, Park Seo-jin said, “I think I grew this much thanks to KBS,” and added, “I appeared on ‘Human Theater’ when I was 17. At that time, I didn’t play the drum. I was just a boy who liked trot. Then, in my early 20s, I appeared on ‘Morning Yard’. And now I am currently appearing on ‘Salim Nam’.”
Hong Jin-kyung said, “The stars that ‘Morning Yard’ produced before trot survival shows were Park Seo-jin and Lim Young-woong. I heard that Park Seo-jin beat Lim Young-woong back then,” to which Park Seo-jin replied, “That was when I was 23. (Lim Young-woong) got eliminated and came back through the loser’s revival round. Then we met in the king of kings competition, but he got eliminated again. I won both times.”
When Hong Jin-kyung said, “If it’s Park Seo-jin, Lim Young-woong would be grinding his teeth,” Park Seo-jin clarified, “Since then, we have done concerts together and released albums together. We are close.”
Joo Woo-jae asked, “If you’re that close, when you meet Lim Young-woong, don’t you tease him by saying ‘Didn’t I win back then?’” Park Seo-jin confessed, “(Lim Young-woong) is too high up in the sky. I can’t touch him. I can’t even call him.”
In the past, Park Seo-jin, who was envied by Lim Young-woong, said, “Back then, I had more events and fans than Lim Young-woong, so I envied him. But now it has reversed.”
Meanwhile, Park Seo-jin mentioned that he was called a highway idol along with Lim Young-woong, saying, “We released a medley album together. It was a huge hit. It sold a lot.”
Hearing this, Hong Jin-kyung said, “If you’ve done a medley together, I think you could at least make a phone call in the evening. Doing a medley together is different,” which flustered Park Seo-jin.
