Park Seo-jin said, "Compared to other seniors, people might not know much about me, so I was nervous that I might not be able to form a connection," and chose Na Hoon-a's 'Eomma' (Mother) as his song.

He added, "There is a big difference in career and age compared to Na Hoon-a sunbaenim, so it probably won't feel like the way Na Hoon-a sunbaenim sang it," and said, "I hope you will embrace me with a generous heart even if I make mistakes," before starting his performance.

Park Seo-jin's heartfelt voice and explosive emotions moved the audience to tears. After finishing the stage, Park Seo-jin also showed tears, saying, "Seeing the audience cry, I couldn't hold back my tears."
