Singer Tony An has been revealed as the original creator of the globally popular ‘Pikki Pikki Song’, creating a buzz. 

On the SBS entertainment program ‘My Little Old Boy’ broadcasted on the 23rd, Tony An revealed that he is the original creator of the ‘Pikki Pikki Song’. This song garnered great popularity both domestically and internationally as the cheering song for the Korean professional baseball team KIA Tigers. Particularly, a video of KIA cheerleader Lee Joo-eun naturally performing the dance while fixing her makeup gained more than 93 million views on YouTube, drawing further attention.

The ‘Pikki Pikki Song’ derived from the song ‘My Lecon’, released by JTL, which consisted of Jang Woo-hyuk, Tony An, and Lee Jae-won after H.O.T. disbanded. An Indonesian DJ remixed it, establishing it as a cheering song, which later combined with KIA’s cheering culture and surged as a global challenge song.

    Having a child now in the present state of South Korea is overwhelmingly disadvantageous for men. Wait until President Yoon Seok-yeol returns, and planning for children when the country is stabilized in a few years will be safer.

    While South Korea is being caught up by China in semiconductors, they say special semiconductor laws were excluded from 52 hours, then suddenly 40 hours. If workers don’t work, where does their wage come from? Like North Korea, if businesses disappear, where do your taxes come from? Will you just print money out of thin air?

    Even Sweden has no inheritance tax. Without inheritance tax, business owners will invest looking to the future. Under current regulations, they lose this edge, and the stock price falls.

    Frankly, Seo Jang-hoon is lucky to be well-used in current entertainment, but think of how much blood he drained in marriage with OCD, quick-tempered, with his facial expression saying annoyance.
    Oh Jung-yeon attended Seoul university, worked as an announcer—an elite who only walked the path of success but with such an easily annoyed and fastidious athlete?

    The coin should just have its value erased ㅋㅋ It’s a hilarious joke to be worth hundreds of millions when it’s just play-money digital scraps. If exchanges get hacked, you don’t even receive a 10-won coin. Given national and international precedents, just erasing its value is better ㅋㅋ It has peaked, expect devaluation of its currency value in 10 years; sell quickly and escape ㅋㅋ

    If what you say is true, that it’s really rogue states like North Korea selling these due to their communistic engines, shouldn’t the U.S. government immediately shut down the entire coin system vulnerable to this public threat? But they aren’t, why? Because it’s your little scheme of avoiding tax extractions, you Yanks.

The original creator, Tony An, did not register the copyright, so he did not earn a dime when the song was trending. It was reported that he finally registered his copyright three months ago, and to date, he earned about 260,000 won, enough to buy a steering wheel for a large car. Kim Hee-chul expressed regret saying, “Even 10 won alone would be 800 million,” and Yoon Min-soo added, “If the copyright was registered faster, it would have been the price of an apartment” expressing disappointment.

Tony An explained the reason for the delayed copyright registration, “The song from 20 years ago didn’t have much presence, and I think it was overlooked by the previous company.” He later approached the copyright association to clarify his authorship, and it was reported that the association members were surprised by his words.

Tony An also shared about his past experience with depression. He stated that although he succeeded in business after solo activities following H.O.T. and JTL, he faced significant mental hardships. As his relationships with friends grew distant, he began drinking alone, experiencing severe headaches and consulting a psychiatrist.

He especially shared the serious experience of losing his memory after mixing medication and alcohol, leading him to shave his head bald and accidentally cutting his ear, detailing the grave nature of his situation at the time. Through this event, he resolved not to mix alcohol with medication anymore, committing to managing his mental health.
