He continued, “I can’t straighten my back properly because of the constant convulsions. It’s a very difficult situation.” He said, “I thought I would get better after surgery, but my body doesn’t seem to change much. There are so many people around me who worry about me, but if I run a marathon, A dead point is coming. I think a dead point has come in my life. I want to show you how to overcome it through this opportunity.”

Then, “I thought it would be good if it would be an opportunity to share, remember, and cherish my thoughts about director Yoo Sang-cheol and his previous performances,” he said. Kim Byeong-ji selected Ahn Jae-wook’s ‘Friend’, saying, “He was like a lighthouse that led the team. He was a reliable existence who showed up anytime and anywhere, and his positions were all sorted out.”
Shin Jae-hwan said, “I will come down from the Olympics with that mindset and win the trophy with an honest and unpretentious voice.” Shin Jae-hwan selected ‘Rain and You’ and created a sweet stage with his extraordinary singing ability, giving viewers a gwiho river and winning the final championship.
