Three years have passed since the late singer Song Min-do passed away.

The deceased died on February 28, 2023, in a hospice ward in the United States. He was 100 years old. While staying in a nursing home, he died if his health deteriorated and he was transferred to a hospice ward.

Song Min-do was born in Suwon, Gyeonggi Province in 1923 and graduated from Ewha Hakdang in Seoul after graduating from Samhwa General School in Pyongannam-do. In 1947, at the age of 24, he applied for the recruitment of exclusive singers for the Central Broadcasting Station (now KBS). At this time, he was selected as a first-term singer of the broadcasting station along with Lee Ye-sung, Won Bang-hyun, Kim Baek-hee, and Ok Doo-ok, and after three months of training, he released his debut song "Hometowncho." However, Song Min-do was marked as "Song Min-sook" without his consent from the record label at the time because his name was like a man.

Since then, Song Min-do sang the theme song of the same name of the popular KBS radio drama "Cheongsil Hongsil," known as the No. 1 Korean drama theme song, in 1956 as a duet with singer Anda-sung and recorded an unbeatable hit. In addition, he produced a number of hit songs such as "Holding Your Lives," "Yeook's Song," "Under the Roof of Seoul," "Golden Horse in the Sky," and "Kachusha's Song."

Another representative song that cannot be left out is 1955's "My One Love." The song, which swept through the 1950s, was also produced in movies and novels.
