Yoon Sang Hints At Possibility Of RIIZE Anton’s Brother Debuting As A K-Pop Idol

On the upcoming episode of MBC’s Radio Star, singer Yoon Sang, also known as the father of RIIZE’s Anton, is set to appear as a guest.

On the show, he revealed why Anton suddenly dreamed of becoming a singer.

Lyricist Kim Eana is the person who ignited Anton’s dream of becoming a singer.

Yoon Sang initially opposed Anton’s decision, but later admitted that he couldn’t avoid what “runs in the family.”

Yoon Sang, who signed an album contract with SM Entertainment in the early 2000s, felt this was another inevitable reason Anton became an idol at SM Entertainment.

SM specialized in idols at the time, so when colleagues found out that I was releasing an album there, they would all look at me strangely. I guess this was SM’s big picture now that Anton has debuted as an idol.

Yoon Sang was also asked how he would feel if his younger son wanted to debut in the Korean entertainment industry.

Honestly, until the beginning of this year, I told him he would be in big trouble if he did this, too. But I think he is jealous of his older brother.

He also shared that IU was the first Korean celebrity that Anton was interested in and revealed that he first met her in elementary school. Regardless, it was a great memory for Anton, which he still talks about from time to time.

Netizens were all for his brother’s debut and felt that he had the potential to be an idol too!

“Joonyoung really has the face of an idol too.”
“DIdn’t everyone also want to kidnap Joonyoung too.”
“The younger son is really tall and good looking too.”
“Joonyoung, do you want to come to SM?”
“Joonyoung looks similar to Anton, both visually and physically. They are truly brothers.”
