Singer Goo Chang-mo revealed how he got involved in business as a car dealer.

On the 19th, MBN's "Soljuri Show Dongchimi" featured Goo Chang-mo and Kim Beom-ryong.

That day, Goo Chang-mo addressed the reason for his past disappearance, saying it was "one of the sad chapters in my life," and added, "In fact, I didn't disappear on my own; I was made to disappear."

He continued, "Many people ask why I suddenly started a business after going to the Soviet Union, but I never had any business plans."

He further recalled, "At that time, I received an invitation to participate in 'Voice of Asia,' a music festival in Kazakhstan. However, it was a period when I wasn't singing. There was a PD scandal in the broadcasting industry at the time. Most singers were summoned for questioning as witnesses. I too was questioned for 15 hours. In fact, I was deeply hurt by that and stopped singing, living every day with alcohol."

Goo Chang-mo shared, "During that period, I received an invitation to 'Voice of Asia.' We arrived in Moscow at night, and it was incredibly quiet. After enduring four more hours of flight through that sense of fear, we reached Kazakhstan. The people there were truly pure and kind. People of all ages enjoyed singing freely."

He also mentioned, "There, I happened to meet the president of a Korean noodle brand. Although I received a business proposal at the time, I declined it. Later, on the flight back to Korea, I sat next to an executive from H Corporation. As we chatted about various topics, the conversation eventually turned to business, and I exchanged business cards with him." He recalled this unexpected encounter.

He explained, "The chairman of H Corporation was completely my fan. That's how the three of us—the chairman, the executive, and I—met. The chairman then proposed that I sell cars in five Central Asian countries, which is how I ended up starting this business."
