On 'Immortal Songs,' singer Shin Sung delivered a heartfelt performance dedicated to his father, who is battling illness, moving the audience deeply.

Shin Sung appeared as a guest in Part 2 of the "Nationwide Trot Grand Festival Special" episode of KBS 2TV's 'Immortal Songs,' which aired on the afternoon of the 5th. He formed the team "Chungcheong Jin-guk Voice" alongside singer Namgung Jin, completing a magnificent stage with their fantastic chemistry.

In this broadcast, styled as Part 2 of the "Nationwide Trot Grand Festival Special," Shin Sung and Namgung Jin represented Chungcheong Province. They revealed their group name as "Sweet Guys," hailing from Nonsa, famous for apples, and Yesan, famous for strawberries, showcasing their incredible teamwork. Shin Sung then added, "I was recognized for my contributions to the annual festival stage in Yesan and am scheduled to be appointed as a promotional ambassador for Yesan soon," expressing deep affection for his hometown. He continued, "Chungcheong people are laid-back but have one powerful shot in competition. We will sing wildly and aim for victory," stepping onto the stage with great ambition.

The song chosen by the two that day was Patty Kim's classic "Parting." Dressed in pure white outfits, they immediately captivated the audience's ears with their soulful voices as the song began. In particular, Shin Sung maximized the sorrowful atmosphere of the track through his exceptional vocal ability and delicate emotional expression, characteristic of his unique "humidifier voice." As the song progressed toward its latter half, Shin Sung and Namgung Jin unleashed powerful harmonies alongside a large-scale choir, completely dominating the stage.

After the performance, the cast members continued to praise them. 'Immortal Songs' MC Lee Chan-won remarked, "It was impressive how Shin Sung immediately dropped his playful demeanor and immersed himself intensely once the intro began. I don't think anyone can replicate the emotion of that intro," expressing admiration. Shin Yu also stated, "I want to keep listening to just the intro on repeat," highlighting its strong addictive quality.

Returning to the stage for judging, Shin Sung caught everyone's attention after catching his breath and telling MC Shin Dong-yeop, "I have something to say." He then confessed, "My father was diagnosed with stage 4 stomach cancer two months ago." With tears welling in his eyes, he added, "My father is currently undergoing chemotherapy and fighting the illness. I hope this song reaches my father who is listening to it right now." As Shin Sung's video message expressed his wish to wait for the day his father smiles healthily, the audience responded with warm applause and sincere support.

Meanwhile, Shin Sung is a runner-up from MBN's 'Burning Trotman.' He is a talented trot singer beloved for his unique sensibility, often described as having a "humidifier voice." Currently active across various fields including broadcasting, live performances, and entertainment programs, he continues to gain nationwide popularity with his hit song "Bold You."
