South Korean singer YoungTak is at the forefront of bringing Korean trot music to the global stage.

On February 7, 2023, YoungTak and his music were introduced to the press, including PEP.ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal), during a press conference arranged by Live Nation Philippines held at the grand ballroom of the City of Dreams in Parañaque City.

The event was attended by Live Nation Korea's Cho Young-bae, Live Nation Philippines' Rhiza Pascua, Milagro Entertainment CEO Lee Jae-kyu, and Universal Records Philippines' Kathleen Go.

At the press launch, YoungTak expressed how grateful he is to be given the chance to promote his songs overseas.

With the help of a translator, he said, "Sa buong buhay ko po, hindi ko inisip na ako'y makakarating sa ibang bansa upang ipakita po ang aking sarili, ikuwento po ang aking sarili.

"Kaya, kung iisipin po na nakarating ako dito sa Pilipinas at nabahagi ko rin po ang tungkol sa akin at sa aking mga awit, ngayon pa lang po ay sobra na akong nagpapasalamat."

During the event, YoungTak performed his viral hit song "Jjiniya." Watch his performance in the video.
