Singer Kang Jin expressed gratitude to actor Jo In-sung.

On the 25th episode of MBN's variety program "Kim Ju-ha's Day & Night," Kang Jin and Jin-seong appeared as guests.

That day, Kang Jin spoke about his hit song "Ttaengbeol": "I recorded 'Ttaengbeol' in 2001 and promoted it diligently during my broadcasting activities. At that time, trot music was not yet booming like it is today. Even after promoting for about five years, the song only became somewhat known among middle-aged and older generations."

Kang Jin said, "While I was doing that, one day a junior singer told me that Jo In-sung would sing 'Ttaengbeol' in a movie. I went to the theater and watched the film; people were asking what song it was and saying it was fun. Before long, when I woke up from sleep, I had become a star. My schedule became packed. Previously, I had to request schedules, but now calls came to my home asking me to appear on shows. They even thanked me after I appeared. Everything completely changed." He shared how his life turned around.

"Ttaengbeol" made a reverse surge about six years after Jo In-sung sang it in the movie "Unjust City."

He added, "We won first place on 'Music Bank.' It was the first time for trot music," sparking surprise.

Regarding the popularity at the time, Kang Jin said, "I was overwhelmed. I felt like I was floating on clouds. So many people received me. I even hosted up to 10 schedules."

Speaking about Jo In-sung, Kang Jin joked, "I made Jo In-sung win the Best Actor award. Everyone says 'Ttaengbeol' succeeded because Jo In-sung sang it, which is accurate, but I also elevated Jo In-sung to a higher level today." He then added, "I am grateful and thankful to Jo In-sung."
