Im Young-woong previews unreleased Latin pop track 'Tto Tto' on SBS variety show

Im Young-woong premiered an unreleased self-composed song called Tto Tto (또또) on the July 21 episode of SBS variety program Sanggol Chonggak Yeong-ung, filmed at the foothills of Chiak Mountain in Shinrim-myeon, Wonju-si, Gangwon Special Self-Governing Province.

He walked through the song's emotional core himself. It captures a situation where neither party has made a move—no rejection, no flirtation—but he keeps falling for the person again and again despite sensing it won't work out. The title came from a different direction. "I've been into Latin pop lately, and the pronunciation 'to' appears a lot in Latin," he said. "When I connected that to the lyrics it was fun, so I titled it '또또'." The track sits on a Latin pop foundation, a genre shift from the trot and ballad work he's known for.

Co-stars reacted fast. Nucksal (넉살) said "This is so good?" on the spot. Heo Gyeong-hwan backed him up—"It was really good"—and Roy Kim told Im Young-woong to "do what you want to do." Im Young-woong deflected: "There's nothing much so I can't really show it to you."

The cast and production crew also faced off in a 4-vs-4 jokgu match with 600,000 won worth of Korean beef on the line. Next week's broadcast brings in guests Cha Seung-won, known from the rural variety show Three Meals a Day, and actor Kim Do-hoon.
