Lee Chan-won “The person who made Hong Jin-young debut as a singer”

Singer Lee Chan-won revealed that Hong Jin-young was the stepping stone that helped him debut as a trot singer.

Episode 595 of KBS2's 'Immortal Songs', which will be aired on the 25th, will feature Part 2 of a special feature on 'Lost Lyricist Park Geon-ho'. Bada, La Poem, Kim Ki-tae, Hong Jin-young, Purple Kiss, etc. will appear on stage in the second part and sing lyrics by lyricist Park Geon-ho.

On this day, MC Lee Chan-won said, "Hong Jin-young is the person who helped me debut and laid the foundation for me," and added, "There used to be an audition called 'Hongdition' to select Hong Jin-young's younger brother, a trot singer. I got there to the final 12th place and then fell." “After that, I turned my dream around and debuted as a trot singer,” he said.

Da-kyung Jeong also expresses her gratitude to Jin-young Hong. Jeong Da-kyung, who majored in Korean dance, said, "Hong Jin-young was the person who introduced me to trot at a time when trot was unfamiliar to me," and said that she dreamed of becoming a trot singer after seeing Hong Jin-young. Da-kyung Jeong said, “I became a trot singer by chance, and I watched a lot of Hong Jin-young’s videos.”

Hong Jin-young, who heard this, was happy and said, "I always support Lee Chan-won and Jeong Da-kyung, and I am happy that they are doing well." He said, "Please love Trot," and reportedly exuded his unique high tension.
