On the July 27 broadcast of the SBS program "uh, but like, seriously!", Kangnam visited Suzy's boarding house.

On this day, regarding Tak Jae-hoon treating him coldly, Kangnam said, "Hyung, you became successful because of me. Don't you remember?"

He continued, claiming a stake in Tak Jae-hoon's success by saying, "Back when you were only getting paid for occasional appearances on 'My Little Old Boy', I brought it up, and isn't that why the network executive made you a regular cast member from then on?"

Kangnam, who appeared on "My Little Old Boy" 5 years ago, asked Tak Jae-hoon if he was a fixed cast member. When Tak Jae-hoon replied that he was, Kangnam said, "No. Hyung, you were a semi-fixed member," and asked, "Did the head director meet you and say, 'Tak Jae-hoon, you are a fixed member'?"

At that, Tak Jae-hoon replied, "He just told me thank you." To this, Kangnam recounted what he had said back then: "That was just a token gesture. Hyung, you shouldn't give up here. You have to keep going until you become a regular cast member."

Recalling that time, when asked about what really happened, Tak Jae-hoon brought laughter by saying, "Kangnam really doesn't let things go."
