The MBN entertainment program 「2025 Korea-Japan King of Kings」, designed to commemorate the 60th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Korea and Japan, is a huge music project in which TOP7 from Korea and Japan compete in the form of a national competition. The stage that drew the most attention was by far the showdown between Korea's No. 1 Park Seo-jin and Japan's No. 1 Takenaka Yudai. The people's judgment team's attention was focused on the big match, which puts the pride of both Korea and Japan on the line.
Park Seo-jin threw his hat in the ring, saying "Enjoying the stage" and selected "Fly the boat" with his trademark janggu. He immediately raised the excitement of the audience with his solid singing and sensuous strength control from the first verse, and led the atmosphere to its peak with an explosive signature double-headed drum performance. Park Seo-jin's stage, which showed the charm of Korean trot with rhythm and energy connecting tradition and modernity, gave a fresh shock to Japanese audiences. At the scene, not only the audience but also the Japanese cast members were surprised and amazed.
Park Seo-jin's stage clip of 'Fly' released immediately after the broadcast is drawing attention as it rapidly soared to 1 million views on YouTube. Park Seo-jin won completely. 58 out of 100 national judges ruled in favor of Park Seo-jin, and Park Seo-jin won one point along with the victory in the preliminary match with his Korean king-like skills.
