During a recent sea fishing trip, the father of singer Jang Yoon-jeong broke into tears while recalling how she performed in heavy rain in Jeonju. Despite the risk of electric shock from microphones, the singer proceeded with the outdoor show to honor her promise to the audience.

The father of singer Jang Yoon-jeong has revealed a moment when he burst into tears while recalling his daughter continuing a performance in the rain, risking electric shock. Watching his daughter take the stage to keep her promise to the audience, the father could not restrain his emotions. The memory of that day, which remains unforgettable even as time passes, once again reveals the deep family affection between Jang Yoon-jeong and her father.

On the 22nd, a video titled "I went fishing for beautiful memories with a precious person" was released on Jang Yoon-jeong's YouTube channel. In the video, Jang Yoon-jeong spent a relaxing time sea fishing with her father. Sitting side by side on a fishing platform over the sea, the two let go of the busyness of daily life for a while to build memories together.

Jang Yoon-jeong also showed her attentive care for her father. She suggested he stay with her, noting that she had arranged accommodations and planned to stay there until the following day to handle local events. Her comment, "You have to have a glass of soju with me," reflected the informal affection and warmth between daughter and father.

Jang Yoon-jeong's exceptional fishing skills shone during the trip. She caught a large Japanese sea bass, and as her father watched her scoop the fish up with a net, he expressed concern that she might fall into the water, urging, "It's dangerous if you lean forward too much." Jang Yoon-jeong elicited laughter by responding to his worry, "Was I so foolish that I was going to go into the water with the fish?" Even as his daughter fished skillfully, the father's eyes remained fixed on her, watching for any potential accidents.

For Jang Yoon-jeong, sea fishing is more than just a hobby. She explained that she has memories of going sea fishing with her father during her childhood and used to follow him when he went reservoir fishing, which is why she is comfortable handling bait. Her comment about being able to handle earthworms without hesitation reflects the experience she naturally gained by her father's side since she was young. This fishing trip was a time for the father and daughter to not only enjoy the present but also look back on their shared past.

The conversation naturally shifted to Jang Yoon-jeong's career as a singer. She recalled an incident that occurred in Jeonju while preparing for an outdoor performance not long after her hit song "Oh My!" gained great popularity. During the rehearsal, heavy rain poured down, creating a situation where the performance might have to be canceled. While instruments could be covered with plastic, the stage using microphones posed a serious problem due to the risk of electric shock accidents.

At the time, it is said that performance officials had people sign documents stating they would take responsibility if an accident occurred. While watching the scene and debating whether to proceed with the performance, Jang Yoon-jeong noticed the audience members sitting in the seats wearing raincoats. Finding it difficult to turn away from the people waiting for her despite the harsh weather, she eventually went out into the rain to take the stage. Explaining the situation at the time, Jang Yoon-jeong said, "How could I not go out there?"

While that day's performance remained a memory for Jang Yoon-jeong of keeping her promise to the audience, for her father, it was a moment of facing the harsh reality his daughter had to endure. Watching his daughter sing on stage, the father finally could not hold back his tears. Jang Yoon-jeong recalled that her father cried a great deal at the time, and the father directly shared his emotions from that day.

The father said, "I cried my heart out that day. There was no shame in it," adding, "The rain was pouring down my face, so I didn't even know if I was crying." He further revealed that toward the end of the performance, he was wailing and even expressed his gratitude to those around him. It appears that a surge of both heartache and pride washed over him as he watched his daughter continue the stage with a rain-soaked face.

On stage, Jang Yoon-jeong took risks to keep her promise to the audience, while in the seats, her father shed tears watching her. The family memory hidden behind the glamorous stage came back to the world during the fishing trip the two shared. Jang Yoon-jeong's calm recollection and her father's honest confession delivered a touching message of a parent's heart that remains unerasable even after a long time.
