Choi Jong-won, JYP's first trot trainee, shared his reflections after completing the challenge on 'Unknown Legend'.

On the 30th, Choi conveyed through his agency, Inet Entertainment, "I was able to learn and gain a great deal from 'Unknown Legend'."

Previously, Choi appeared on MBN's 'Unknown Legend: The Hierarchy War of Trot Men' (hereinafter 'Unknown Legend'), showcasing his stable skills to advance to the semi-finals and prove his overwhelming potential.

Choi stated, "I gave my best at every performance, but there were moments when I faced my own shortcomings, and each time I realized once again that the road ahead is still long. Nevertheless, I was able to discover my own growth in the process, making it an even more precious time."

He continued, "I feel deeply honored to have achieved the undeserved result of advancing to the semi-finals. I sincerely thank everyone who guided me here and supported me even from behind the scenes. Thanks to your support, I was able to keep going until the end and stand on this stage." He did not hold back in expressing his gratitude.

Finally, he added, "Using this experience as a stepping stone, I will become a singer who approaches with a stronger foundation and songs filled with sincerity. Although I am still far from perfect, I will repay you by growing step by step. Please continue to watch over me with warm eyes." He also said, "I will do my best to be able to greet you again with good songs," raising expectations for his future activities.

Choi appeared on 'Unknown Legend' under the title of "JYP's First Trot Trainee," leaving a strong impression with his clear vocal ability and clean dance lines. In particular, during the semi-final stage, he performed 'Like Fire' alongside Hwang Yoon-seong and Kim Beom-ryong, solidifying his presence as a "promising trot star."

In the loser's revival round, he selected Na Hoon-a's 'Broken Wall Clock' and created a stage dedicated to his father, who passed away after battling cancer two years prior, and his mother, who lost her smile afterward. His sincere performance moved and resonated with viewers, earning high national ratings and leaving a deep impression.

Choi, who demonstrated his limitless potential through the semi-finals of KBS 2TV's 'The Ddangdara' and signed a trainee contract with Inet Entertainment, a subsidiary of JYP Entertainment, is now drawing attention to see what other activities he will undertake in the music industry.
