During the broadcast, Song Ga-in performed her representative song 'Gainieora' live, marking an extraordinary opening. Listeners exclaimed, "I thought it was lip-syncing," in response to her flawless live performance.
The broadcast also included mentions of trot singer Cheon Nok-dam (Lee Jeong), who participated as a special DJ. Song Ga-in candidly shared, "I only watched (Cheon Nok-dam's) video because it became an issue. I didn't know he could do trot this well. I wanted to give him a little more lessons." In response, Cheon Nok-dam expressed his respect, saying, "I tried to sing the songs that Song Ga-in sang, but it wasn't easy." Towards the end of the broadcast, Song Ga-in promised Cheon Nok-dam a special lesson, creating a warm atmosphere.
Making a glamorous return with her 4th regular album 'Gain;Dal' after 2 years and 10 months, Song Ga-in stated, "I focused on traditional trot."
The title track 'Asadal' tells the tragic love story of the stone mason Asadal and Asan-nyeo, featuring Song Ga-in's unique traditional Korean singing style. "I'm worried that the song is difficult and might be hard to sing at karaoke," said Song Ga-in, who showcased her outstanding vocal ability with a live performance of the title track 'Asadal', captivating listeners.
The behind-the-scenes story of receiving the double title track 'Tears Are Falling' as a gift from Sim Soo-bong was also revealed. Song Ga-in expressed her gratitude, saying, "Even amidst her busy schedule, senior Sim Soo-bong personally gave me lessons and advised me to sing with less tension. When I sang like that, I was praised as a 'genius'." Sim Soo-bong readily agreed to take on the chorus at Song Ga-in's request, providing a heartwarming episode that showcased the special affection between the two trot queens.
On the 11th, Song Ga-in announced her comeback with the title track 'Gain;Dal' and plans to continue her active activities starting with 'Cultwo Show'. Song Ga-in conveyed her greetings to listeners, saying, "I hope many people will listen to it as I have put in a lot of effort."
