Eom Ji-young, vocalist of the band Big Picture, shared her feelings regarding the controversy surrounding the singing of the national anthem at a professional baseball game between NC Dinos.

On the 4th, a video titled "Meeting the Person Behind the Controversial National Anthem" was uploaded to the YouTube channel 'Go Na Ri Ja'. The released video showed singer Kim Jang-hoon meeting Eom Ji-young.

Previously, on the 16th, Eom Ji-young was in charge of singing the national anthem before the match between NC Dinos and Kiwoom Heroes held at Changwon NC Park. However, she faced criticism for singing the national anthem with excessive technique and ad-libs, placing her at the center of the controversy.

That day, Eom Ji-young said, "I took time to reflect on every mistake I've made since I was born. If I unintentionally hurt anyone because of me, I apologize and will continue to do so," as she shed tears.

Continuing to the controversial singing of the national anthem, she said, "I really wanted to express the national anthem in a truly cool way. I truly didn't know. I didn't know I had to follow the national ceremony regulations. Since I'm from an indie band, it was my first time on such a big stage, so I got too ambitious, and I am so sorry," bowing her head.

She then said, "I wanted to add 'May it be preserved for generations to come.' Shouldn't our country be preserved for generations to come?" which drew laughter.

Eom Ji-young, who was comforted by Kim Jang-hoon, said, "I had trauma, but now I think I can perform on any stage."
