[talk] So you sang it with Seo Taiji's permission?

[SPOTV News=Reporter Kang Hyo-jin] While Im Yoon-ah is gaining attention for her drunken 'Comeback Home' performance in the popular tvN drama 'The Tyrant's Chef', the story of how she ended up singing Seo Taiji's song is attracting attention.

On the 6th episode of tvN's 'Tyrant Chef' that aired on the 7th, Im Yoon-ah was deeply heartbroken when she found out that the whereabouts of Mangunrok were unknown even after she got her bag back, so she drank some alcohol and sang Seo Taiji's 'Come Back Home' with her housemates.

On this day's broadcast, Yeon Ji-young (Im Yoon-ah) started singing sadly, saying, "Where am I going now without stopping?" and soon scolded the Suragan family, saying, "There's no rhythm." She then danced energetically to the choreography of "Come Back Home," causing laughter.

In particular, the lyrics "I wasn't there and I didn't even have tomorrow" were changed to "I didn't even have my fortune" to suit Yeon Ji-young's situation, making people laugh.

However, using Seo Taiji's music requires a more rigorous process than other music sources. Typically, most music is registered with the Korea Music Copyright Association. However, Seo Taiji withdrew from the association in 2002 and now manages all copyrights independently. Therefore, any use of his music requires separate approval from Seo Taiji Company.

Regarding this, the 'Tyrant's Chef' side stated to SPOTV News, "We requested copyright approval from Seo Taiji Company, and the approval for the original author and neighboring rights has been completed smoothly."

In particular, since Im Yoon-ah rewrote the lyrics in the drama, it is said that the original author's approval was absolutely necessary regardless of whether she joined the association or not.

Also, regarding the reason for selecting 'Come Back Home', he said, "I thought there would be a synergy effect between the situation in the drama and the song," drawing attention.

Meanwhile, 'The Tyrant's Chef' continues its popularity surge, recording its highest viewership rating of 12.7% (based on Nielsen Korea nationwide paid households) in the 6th episode that aired on the 7th, thanks to Im Yoon-ah's passionate singing of 'Come Back Home'.
