Singer Moon Seong-jae revealed that he had been in a major car accident in the past.

Singer Moon Seong-jae appeared in episode 587 of MBN's documentary 'Special World', which aired on the 15th.

Currently, Seongjae Moon was living in a farm run by an acquaintance. It has been 4 years since I came in through an acquaintance's recommendation and lived the life of a 'natural person'.

Moon Seong-jae is a singer who sang 'Busan Seagull' and won the 'Singer of the Year' in 1982. Moon Seong-jae gets into a car accident at the age of 31. He said, "I had an accident while going to the event. It was said that I was going to die. I was wearing white clothes, but I went to the hospital with blood all over, and I got 270 stitches." It's been 40 years, but the scars are still there.

Frustrated by a car accident at the time, Moon Seong-jae left for Jeju Island with his family. However, the family could not adapt to the changed environment, and eventually divorced his wife. Moon Seong-jae expressed his sorry feelings toward his wife.

Moon Seong-jae also suffered from health problems recently. Suffering from the aftereffects of shingles. Moon Seong-jae blushed, saying, "You can think of it as being tortured. It hurts so much. I hated everything."

Moon Seong-jae confessed that he was suffering from the copyright controversy of 'Busan Seagull', which is loved as a cheering song for the Lotte Giants. Moon Seong-jae said, "After saying 'I'll go anytime' in the 1970s, I got very sick. I took a hotel and went to rest for a few days, and then I met him at a nightclub at that time, now known as Yang Chairman. At that time, a large establishment was an ordinary person. I couldn't do it. Then, I asked how it would be like to create a wild atmosphere like 'barefooted youth', and the song I received was 'Busan Seagull'."

'Busan Seagull' began to be sung as a cheering song for the Lotte Giants at Sajik Stadium in the early 1990s. Moon Seong-jae said, "I'm proud to sing my song. The sound of the crowd moving made it lively and made the chicken meat come out. I cheered and sang, but the back of my head stood up."

However, 'Busan Seagull' was embroiled in copyright infringement controversy in 2018 and was not used as a cheering song for a while. Moon Seong-jae said, "The person who composed it passed away. I don't know what happened (copyright), but I got a power of attorney. He did everything," he said. "He banned the song without saying a word to me. I would have stopped it. "This song is not our song. It is a citizen's song because Busan citizens sang it, and it is Lotte's cheering song sung by Lotte. I should be grateful to them. I wanted to ask them if this made sense. They didn't even talk to me and did it arbitrarily." la," he said. Because of this, it is said that events held in Busan did not come in.

Fortunately, 'Busan Seagull' is being used again as a cheering song due to the resolution of copyright issues. Moon Seong-jae said, "I don't know under what conditions it was released, but you have to explain it to me. I didn't compose the song, but wasn't it a hit because I called it?"

Moon Seong-jae said, "I was doing business in Busan (misunderstood), and people came and annoyed me. Even if I said 'no', they didn't understand. Because I was sick, everything was annoying later on. So I let it go" at a farm in the countryside. He explained why he was living in seclusion.
