A musician named Yoon Sang and his son, RIIZE's Anton, were guests on a family-themed show of tvN's "You Quiz on the Block" on January 17.
This day, MC Yoo Jae Suk asked Yoon Sang if he had ever thought he would have a child with a K-pop star.
Yoon Sang replied right away, "I never in my life thought it would happen."
I mean, he has loved music ever since he was a kid, but being a hero is a whole other thing. Anton used to be a swimmer for ten years.
He was pretty good at it compared to his friends.
Anton told them that his dream had never been to become a competitive swimmer.
"I didn't swim because I wanted to be a professional swimmer."
I did it mostly to get into a good school.
I learned to play the piano and the guitar while I was swimming.
"When I was in middle school, I also became interested in writing music," the RIIZE member said.
"When he first told me he wanted to be an idol, I told him, 'Don't joke with me,'" Yoon Sang continued.
I almost had a stroke when he told me he was going to Korea to become a K-Pop star.
We talked about it for a year, his mother and I, along with Chanyoung Alant.
After much thought, we chose to let him try it.
He wasn't going to do well in school anyway with that goal in mind.
That's how he got on the plane to Korea.
After that, Anton said in an interview, "I knew that my parents had a different future planned for me."
My dad lived in Korea, away from us. When he came to visit, he would work on music in the basement workshop the whole time.
When the music came up through the floors, I would put my ear to the floor to get a better sound.
When he left, I would go down to the basement by myself because it smelled like him and I was curious about what he was doing.
Around the same time, Yoon Sang thought about the first time in his life that his son bought him food.
'Are you free?' he asked me the day before Christmas.
He paid for our food when we went out to eat.
I cried when I got home.
My own child had bought me food for the first time. 'He's already grown up this much?'"
That's all for today. The other members of RIIZE also welcomed viewers, and Yoon Sang presented each member one by one.
