Gill posted pictures and videos of his son on his account on the 16th, saying, `I'm proud of you, second place.' Gill 's Gil Ha-eum competed in the piano category of the 'International Gifted Competition' and won second place. Gill was proud of her son, who played the piano decently in the competition, and praised him as `second among many.' Many fans cheered for Ha-um, who seemed to have inherited Gil's musical talent.
At the same time, Gill declared her return from 'Gil Sung-jun' to 'Leessang Gill'.
Gill said "7 p.m. on the 17th, YouTube 'Shine Gil Sung-jun' channel will be renewed with 'Leessang Gill' channel" In addition, he pledged to grow his hair for 100 days if he achieves 100,000 subscribers within 100 days.
Gill made his debut as an X-TEEN in 1998, went through the Honey Family and formed Leesang in 2002. Lee Sang has become a representative hip-hop duo in Korea with legendary hits such as 'Clown'Ballerino'I'm not laughing'Rush'. However, the team officially disbanded in 2022.
Gill dropped out of MBC 'Infinite Challenge ' in 2014 due to drunk driving. In the process, Gill was widely criticized for being caught drunk driving in 2004. Fortunately, Lee Ssang's stronghold at the time was added to the entertainment image built through the `Infinite Challenge' and returned as a producer for the first time in two years, appearing in 'Unpretty Rapstar 3' and 'Superstar K 2016'.
However, Gil's image crashed in 2017 when he was caught drunk driving again and sentenced to six months in prison and two years of probation. Gill returned to broadcasting after three years with 'Eye Contact' in 2020, but criticism poured in. Gill is currently communicating with fans through her YouTube channel. Attention is focusing on how he will respond by bringing up the name of 'Leessang' again.
