[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Kim Seul-gi] Trot singer No Ji-hoon (30) revealed the reason why he decided to challenge 'Mr. Trot.'

On the 21st, singer Shin Sung and No Ji-hoon appeared as guests on KBS 1TV's 'Morning Yard' Tuesday Invitation.

In the broadcast, No Ji-hoon shared, "I debuted as a dance singer with the ambition to become the next-generation solo singer following senior Bee."

He continued, "I debuted as a solo singer, but my skills were lacking, so I couldn't get on stage. During that difficult time, a shaman I knew told me to try out for 'Mr. Trot.' I had never sung trot before, so it was challenging, but once I tried it, it suited me very well and I liked it."

He added, "When I was doing idol music, I was criticized for having a lot of trot elements in my singing, but after starting trot, that became my greatest strength."

Meanwhile, No Ji-hoon debuted in 2012 with the mini album 'The Next Big Thing.' Later, in January, he gained attention by appearing on TV Chosun's entertainment program 'Mr. Trot.'
