At the recently aired 'TV Chosun University Song Festival' in Korea, participants competed under the theme 'Get a Guitar'. During a break in the performance, the judges' talk was revealed. Kim Tae Woo from god asked Yoon Sang, 'How does it feel to become the father of a RIIZE member?' Yoon Sang's son, Anton from RIIZE, is following in his father's footsteps as a singer. In response to the question, Yoon Sang said, 'I still don't really know,' and Kim Hyun Suk next to him added, 'Maybe you can't feel it yet?' Yoon Sang then suggested to Kim Tae Woo, who asked the question, 'Your parents might know, right?' referring to Kim Tae Woo, a member of god who became a national singer at 19. He mentioned, 'My parents thought, “He probably won’t sell at all” when I debuted,' which drew laughter. Later, when Kim Hyun Suk asked Yoon Sang, 'Don't fans visit your house (for your son)?' he replied, 'Not at all.' The broadcast featured a one-on-one guitar duel themed around RIIZE's song 'Get a Guitar', with Park Seol performing a stage for his father and choosing Lee Eun Mi's 'A Nostalgia'. His pure singing voice stimulated the judges' emotions, but he made a mistake, which was regrettable. Lee Jae Yeop chose Tom Jones' 'Delilah', captivating the judges with his immersive gaze and skill. Yoon Sang praised both for creating a stage with just a guitar. Hearing the judges' compliments, both received a tie score and passed the first round, with Park Seol shedding tears. Seeing this, Yoon Sang empathized with the participants' feelings, saying, 'It was that earnest.' - RIIZE's Anton & Yoon Sang also participated!
