Park Seo-jin "'Mr. Trot 2' cannot agree to kill Park Seo-jin"

Singer Park Seo-jin came out with ‘Authentic Trot’. After appearing in ‘Mr. Trot 2’, I got to meet fans on stage as a singer. Through this album, he wants to show his ‘sincerity in music.’ Since his greed was involved from the beginning of the album production process, he also gained confidence in its success.

Park Seo-jin conducted an interview ahead of the release of her mini album 'Chunmong' on the 27th. On this day, Park Seo-jin expressed his feelings about the album release. He said, "I think it's different from previous albums. Teacher Na Hoon-a participated in it himself. That's why it has deep meaning. It's an album I'm personally looking forward to. I've prepared a lot and thought more carefully about recording, mixing, and mastering than ever before. “He said.

This ‘Chunmong’ album contains a total of 3 songs. It contains the title song ‘Ginaya’, ‘Spring Dream’, and ‘I Lived in Vain’. In particular, the title song 'Ginaya' was written by singer Na Hoon-ah, and the composition and arrangement was done by composer Jeong Gyeong-cheon.

Regarding this, Park Seo-jin said, "At first, I wanted to receive one song written and composed by teacher Jeong Gyeong-cheon. He played three songs for me, and I told him I wanted to do three songs and ended up recording them."

He continued, "It's been a while since you said you would give me a song. I got a call after I lost in a death match. I think I actually started working on the music around early February. I practiced and recorded it quickly."

Prior to the album's release, Park Seo-jin made his face known through 'Mr. Trot 2'. Regarding the reason for her appearance, she said, "I wanted to greet you as Park Seo-jin, who purely sings," and "I was worried about it until a week before I submitted my documents. While going to the event, I ran into the wall of reality that made me feel like a 'frog in a well.' If you say Park Seo-jin, who is it?" “I heard about it. I wanted to get a chance,” he said, recalling that time.

Park Seo-jin was considered a candidate to win 'Mr. Trot 2'. It received attention by being ranked at the top of viewer voting every time. However, he was eliminated after a death match with Ahn Seong-hoon. Some fans criticized the broadcaster for 'malicious editing' and 'killing Park Seo-joon'.

In response, Park Seo-jin said, "I think it was natural that I was promoted to an additional pass instead of All Hearts in the first place," and "I felt like I was lacking a lot. While preparing for Mr. Trot 2, it was a time to learn how to prepare for the stage and how to calm my mind." He said.

He also replied, "When I took on the challenge, I didn't aim for first place. I think I've achieved my goal if I just make my name known. I don't have any regrets about failing. I think the broadcaster made the right edit in that situation."

In fact, he feels grateful for the change in popularity after Mr. Trot 2. Park Seo-jin smiled and said, "I was eliminated, but it actually became a hot topic. I received Na Hoon-ah's song and also received a lot of advertising inquiries. I think I might be the winner among them."

In addition, he said, "I don't have any regrets now. I felt empty when I was eliminated that day. I wanted to perform on stage more and be with my colleagues, but I felt that kind of greed. However, I don't plan to participate in competition programs in the future."

Park Seo-jin was born in 1995 and turns 29 this year. Although his name and face have just become known, the task of enlisting remains. Regarding this, Park Seo-jin answered succinctly, saying, "I still plan to focus on my activities. I haven't thought about the timing of my enlistment yet."

Park Seo-jin also talked about the plan for a 'joint concert' that singer Lim Young-woong had mentioned in the past. He made everyone laugh by saying, "In the past, I had a conversation with Lim Young-woong about that. If things went well, let's do a concert together. But now he's doing well on his own."

Lastly, Park Seo-jin revealed her dream as a singer. He said, "I released an album to coincide with the 10th anniversary of my debut. It's a good start. I hope the 10th anniversary will have a meaningful place in the singer's life."

Park Seo-jin said, "In the future, my goal is to create singers who are good at singing, songs that tell people's stories when they listen to them, and songs that people want to sing along to. I want to become a singer who is remembered and loved even after time passes, like Na Hoon-ah and Lee Mi-ja."
