KBS2's `The Boss's Ear Is Donkey' (hereinafter 'Sadanggui') broadcast on the 9th revealed why Park Sung-jin, a North Korean defector, defected to the South.
On this day, Park Sung-jin asked 'Why did you defect to the North when you were good at turning on Haegeum?' The executives at the wedding of an older brother said 'Drink a lot and sing a rotten song to me'. So I sang Joo Byeong-seon's 'Chilgapsan' and 'But I didn't sing it because I wanted to, but I was imprisoned by the Security Command for 40 days.'"

Park Sung-jin, who was even sentenced to death, said "The party executive called him to the investigation room and said "Don't ever sing Yanbian again." He changed his name from a Korean song to a Yanbian song. I was going to be released after signing a contract not to divulge my prison life, but he put it in a car and moved somewhere. It is called Taetan, South Hwanghae Province. He said he was deported. "But there are so many propaganda because it's close to Korea. That's when I found out after seeing the propaganda. 'Everything I learned was a lie. South Korea is doing so well. That's why I've defected from North Korea."
