Singer Shin Sung-yi made a surprise appearance as a guest on KBS1's 'Morning Yard' segment 'With the Famous Person,' revealing his special connection and heartwarming stories with Jang Min-ho.

On the day, Shin Sung-yi energized the atmosphere by passionately performing his hit song 'Eolkeunhan Dangsin.' He was introduced with his record of five wins on the popular 'Challenge! Dream Stage' corner of 'Morning Yard' and as the runner-up of MBN's 'Burning Trotman,' receiving cheers from the audience.

During the broadcast, Shin Sung-yi recalled that Jang Min-ho seemed like a celebrity from their first meeting and described him as a deep and wonderful older brother, not only in appearance but also in character. He shared anecdotes about working together as teammates on a trot audition program, practicing and performing together, and how Jang Min-ho always took care of the younger members' meals and bought padded vests for them in winter. He also added a heartwarming story about Jang Min-ho offering to send money by phone to members who could not attend meal gatherings. Shin Sung-yi described him as "a warm and comforting presence like a relative you meet every holiday."

Shin Sung-yi also revealed that during his eight years of obscurity, Jang Min-ho encouraged him by saying, "The one who endures is the winner. If you keep trying, good days will surely come," which gave him great strength. He recalled the advice, "In this field, those who endure the longest win. Work hard," as a memorable phrase.

When asked about the secret to his youthful appearance during the broadcast, Shin Sung-yi replied, "Partly because of good makeup, and recently, I lost a lot of weight due to the stress of preparing for competitions." He then shared his motto as "Don't think, just act," and requested to be called the main character of 'With the Famous Person' next time.

Meanwhile, Shin Sung-yi is actively promoting himself after becoming the runner-up on MBN's 'Burning Trotman.' Recently, he declined offers to be a judge on other programs and appeared as a challenger on MBN's 'Legend of the Unknown.' He is also loved for his new song 'Eolkeunhan Dangsin.'
