Song Il-guk reported on the current status of his triplets, who are going through puberty.
On the 4th episode of KBS2's 'Immortal Songs', the story of 'Immortal Songs-2026 entertainment industry king of song competition Part 2' unfolded.
This '2026 entertainment industry king of song competition' special featured all-around entertainers from the entertainment industry who have officially released albums or singles, and in Part 1 five acts — Hong Seok-cheon, Park Joonhyung, Moon Seyoon, Lee Hwi-jae, and Kim Shin-young & Cheon Dan-bi — appeared and presented an overwhelming parade of talent that thrilled the panel of music judges.
Following that momentum, the next performers were Lalal, the Gag Concert 'Chatflix' team, Song Il-guk & Oh Man-seok (musical 'The Hague' team), Lee Chan-seok, and Jo Hye-ryun.
Appearing with Oh Man-seok that day, Song Il-guk said, "This is my first time properly performing a song on stage," revealing his nervousness, and Oh Man-seok said, "His tone is much better than mine. He sings really steadily," raising expectations.
When asked about his family's reaction to appearing on 'Immortal Songs', Song Il-guk said, "My wife is actually the head of the band club at the courthouse. So our second child Min-guk is dreaming of composing. When I said dad is going out, she said, 'Huh?' She's already in the second year of middle school," drawing attention.
Song Il-guk said, "(the triplets' puberty) is intense right now. I'm being careful. I live praying every day," and added, "It doesn't go to their mother (who is a judge). It all comes to me. It all comes to me. I'm being careful right now. I'm very cautious because I'm afraid their friends will talk if I say something," eliciting laughter.
He continued, "The hardest part is, there are three 'Long live Korea' so there's no room, and their only private space is the bathroom, so when they go in it's for an hour. Someone said, don't touch them. When they're in the bathroom they have to hold it in, so it's driving me crazy," and added, "For example, if I put my arm around them, they silently push my hand away," shocking listeners.
Moreover, all three triplets are already over 180 cm. Song Il-guk added, "The third is 80, the second is about 83 cm."
