Singer Kim Yong-pil expressed his longing for his father, who died after battling bladder cancer.
Kim Yong-pil and his mother Jeong Seok-soon appeared on TV Chosun's "Perfect Life," which aired on the 18th.
On this day, Kim Yong-pil's mother said, "I found out later about my son's sudden transition to trot singer. I couldn't even stop it because it was already spilled water," he said.

"I never heard (Kim Yong-pil) sing, so I didn't even know he was good. When I saw him performing for the first time, I thought he was doing well," he said.
Later, Kim Yong-pil recalled his father, who passed away a year ago after battling bladder cancer, and confessed, "When I go to the hospital these days, I think of my father like that."
When the MCs asked, "What's the most regrettable thing?" Kim Yong-pil confessed, "It's a pity that I haven't had much time to drink with my father versus man."
"My mother saw me as a singer, but my father was sick from that point on, so he died without seeing me as a singer. People around me regret that a lot," he said.
Kim Yong-pil's mother also expressed her sorrow of bereavement, saying, "Whenever I go out or return home, I look at my husband's pictures and say, 'I'll be back' and 'I've had a good trip'.
