Remembering My Grandfather When I See Jin Sung Sunbae 정동원
# When I See Jin Sung Sunbae 정동원, I Think of My Deceased Grandfather
As I watched the special Lunar New Year program, "JinSung Big Show BOK, South Korea" on KBS2TV, I couldn't help but think of my late grandfather whenever Jin Sung appeared on stage. The show, which aired on January 10th at 9:15 pm, featured Jin Sung, the "Trot Medley King" who has captured the hearts of multiple generations with his hit songs such as "Boritgogae," "Don't Tackle Me," "I'm a Fool," and "At Andong Station." The show was a music talk show where Jin Sung looked back on his 40 years of anonymity and his battle with leukemia, and shared positive messages of "It's okay" and "Everything will be alright" while wishing the viewers a happy new year.
One of the highlights of the show was when Jin Sung's close friend, Jung Dong Won, appeared as a guest. Jung Dong Won shared a heartwarming story about his special connection with Jin Sung and my grandfather. He revealed that before he became famous and participated in nationwide singing competitions, he used to go to festivals with his grandfather. And every time he went, Jin Sung sunbae was always there. It turns out that my grandfather and Jin Sung had a unique bond during their unknown days, and my grandfather had witnessed their performances together. As Jung Dong Won shared this story, I couldn't help but feel touched and emotional. It was as if my grandfather and Jin Sung were like a grandson and grandfather.
Jung Dong Won also mentioned that whenever he and Jin Sung sing together now, he can't help but think that his grandfather must be proud of them from heaven. This statement received a warm round of applause from the audience. Jung Dong Won also shared a funny story about a video of him with a perm hairstyle that he would like to erase from his past. It was a video from when he participated in the nationwide singing competition.
As I watched Jin Sung and Jung Dong Won's close friendship and their special connection, I couldn't help but reflect on my own relationship with my grandfather. It made me realize how precious and irreplaceable the bond between a grandparent and grandchild is. I miss my grandfather dearly, and I am grateful for the memories we shared together. And whenever I see Jin Sung sunbae, I am reminded of my grandfather's love and support for me.
In conclusion, the "JinSung Big Show BOK, South Korea" was not just a music talk show, but it was also a heartwarming tribute to the special bond between Jin Sung and my grandfather. It was a reminder to cherish and appreciate the love and support of our loved ones, especially our grandparents. And I am grateful to have witnessed such a beautiful friendship and connection between Jin Sung and my grandfather.
