Trot singer Kang Jin reveals the touching behind-the-scenes story of personally visiting Na Hoon-a, the original composer, for his hit song "Ttaengbeol."

Kang Jin shared on MBN's "Kim Ju-ha's Day & Night," airing on the 25th, that while he was deeply troubled preparing a new song, he decided to visit Na Hoon-a directly. As an unknown singer meeting Na Hoon-a for the first time, Kang Jin confessed, "It felt like meeting my lover; I was so excited and happy." Driven by Kang Jin's determination to make the song a hit, Na Hoon-a reviewed all of Kang Jin's existing songs, then personally arranged the melody and created a new version for him.

Kang Jin said, "He even rearranged it himself, improving it far beyond the original," adding, "Senior Na Hoon-a patted me on the back, saying, 'I hope you succeed.'" This behind-the-scenes story of how the massive hit "Ttaengbeol" came to be left everyone in awe.

Additionally, Kang Jin revealed that his 2001 song "Ttaengbeol" went viral retroactively about six years after actor Jo In-sung performed it in the film "Unjust City," completely changing his life. He explained, "I was flooded with calls begging me to appear on shows just once." He described feeling as if he were floating on clouds. Especially recalling the emotional moment when "Ttaengbeol" became the first trot song to reach number one on "Music Bank," surpassing Shinhwa's Kim Dong-wan, moved him deeply at the scene.

Jin Seong-eun (CEO)reveals the tearful story behind his song "Don't Tackle Me," which he says was a gift from his late father. Jin Seong shared, "After holding a microphone for the first time at age 17, I spent 30 years in an endless struggle as an unknown artist, leading me to question my path as a singer. At that time, I visited my father's grave, who passed away when I was three." In that moment of reflecting on the past, Jin Seong heard a voice in his ears, as if his father were speaking: "Your father will block anyone who tries to tackle you, so fly freely."

Especially, Jin Seong revealed the miraculous story that within about five minutes, both the melody and lyrics suddenly came to him at once, which he wrote down carefully to complete "Don't Tackle Me," stirring excitement among those present.
