Seo Taiji then revealed that he had met with senior Cho Yong Pil and had a self-realization while talking to him about his upcoming concert. The anchor asked, "I hear that you recently got advice from Cho Yong Pil." Seo Taiji answered, "I went to talk to senior Cho Yong Pil about my concert, and he told me that he went to watch the same musical 12 times. He also said that he was watching the stage, the lighting, then the sound. At that moment, I got goosebumps. I realized that I was being lazy." 

According  to Seo Taiji, Cho Yong Pil had gone to a musical not to watch and enjoy it, but to study the stage direction and the sound to better his own performances.
