Actress Sa Kang revealed that her late husband, who passed away last January, was a backup dancer for the group ‘g.o.d’ and singer Park Jin-young.

On the SBS Plus·E Channel entertainment program ‘Because I‘m Solo’ that aired on the 10th, Sa Kang was shown preparing a birthday party for her second daughter and meeting choreographer Bae Yoon-jung to learn how to dance.

Regarding the reason she started learning to dance, Sa Kang said, “My family is a very cheerful family. Dancing with my two daughters used to be my husband’s job, but since my husband was suddenly not around, I thought that I should learn how to dance this time,“ she said.

Regarding her connection with Bae Yoon-jung, she said, ”I got to know him because of my husband,“ and ”When my husband was in college, he was a dancer for the group god and singer Park Jin-young.“

Bae Yoon-jung reminisced about Sa Kang‘s husband, saying, ”He was famous for being handsome,“ and Sa Kang said, ”He was pretty back then,“ with reddened eyes. Sa Kang said, ”My brother (husband) had a fan club back then. I remember him bragging to me a lot.“

While talking to Bae Yoon-jung, Sa Kang seemed to choke up when he thought about his husband, who loved to dance, saying, ”I shouldn’t talk about things that will bring back memories.“

Sa Kang then began learning the choreography for Cool‘s song, ”Sorrow,“ from Bae Yoon-jung. Sa Kang explained the reason for choosing the song, saying, “At that time, my husband knew most of the choreography. I would watch him and dance along. It’s a song that has a special meaning to our family.”

Meanwhile, Sa Kang married a non-celebrity husband in 2007 and had two daughters. She suddenly lost her husband in January.
