In the episode of ‘Salim Nam 2’, Baek Ji-young expressed anger towards those who criticized Park Seo-jin and Jin Hae-sung during their rookie years.
In the episode broadcasted on the 3rd on KBS2TV's ‘Salim Namdeul Season 2’ (hereinafter referred to as ‘Salim Nam 2’), it showed that close friend Jin Hae-sung was invited to Park Seo-jin's house.
That day, close friend Jin Hae-sung visited Park Seo-jin's house. Park Seo-jin disclosed the reason for the invitation, stating, 'Since moving, Hae-sung has not come to my house. I want to show him around my home, enjoy some delicious food together, and have a conversation after a long time.' Upon arriving at Park Seo-jin's house, Jin Hae-sung greeted Park Seo-jin's younger sister Hyo-jung and showcased his friendliness. In response, Park Seo-jin remarked, 'They have a lot in common. They eat well, and they eat a lot.'
Subsequently, the two of them lay on the living room floor. Jin Hae-sung recalled the time he lived with Park Seo-jin. Park Seo-jin said, 'Back in the day when I lived with him, the house was about 46 square meters (14 pyeong). The size was not enough for both of us to stretch out. Now that we can lie down together and still have space, it's a refreshing feeling.'
Jin Hae-sung expressed, 'When I lay in the living room, I felt a lump in my throat. After all, it reminds me of the tough times with Seo-jin.' He added, 'I'm so happy that you're doing well. Seo-jin, you really worked hard.' Upon hearing this, Eun Ji-won commented, 'It's a relief that both of you are doing well. Otherwise, it would naturally become awkward.' Park Seo-jin also noted, 'That's why it feels like we are strengthening our bond even more now, and we seem to help each other during tough times.'
The two, who reportedly first met in 2011, have maintained their friendship for a remarkable 14 years. Recalling their initial meeting at a music producer's office, Park Seo-jin reminisced, 'I used to commute by bus to Busan for one and a half hours every day.'
In response, Jin Hae-sung said, 'Back then, we received a lot of hurt.' Park Seo-jin mentioned, 'That's why you guys are not rising to fame. It's why you're stuck outside the net.'
Surprised, Baek Ji-young asked, 'Who said that?' Park Seo-jin replied, 'At that time, there weren't many young people in the trot scene, so we often received scoldings. They told us, 'Will you succeed in music?' and 'Just give up.' They should have reassured us, but they didn't.' Hearing this, Baek Ji-young expressed anger, saying, 'Did the adults really say that?'
