“Call Me Dad”: How a Song Connected WOODZ and Lee Seung-chul

“Call me dad.” WOODZ described being offered an unexpected name to call the senior singer for whom he had written a 40th-anniversary gift. The story resurfaced online around their October 31 TV appearance. Their official music video offers the sound behind that connection.

Lee Seung-chul and WOODZ appeared on the October 31 episode 549 of JTBC's Knowing Bros. That night, one Korean community post recirculated WOODZ's account of family memories, the song he wrote, and Lee's personal response. “Our Story” was not a new October 31 release: their official duet had already come out on September 30.

What makes the story distinct is where a senior-junior collaboration meets personal memory. According to the account shared from the program, WOODZ recalled his late father, born in 1966 like Lee, enjoying Lee's songs and singing karaoke with him. When asked to help with the anniversary project, he chose to write a song. Lee's invitation to call him “dad” was related in that context.

The reaction evidence is specific rather than sweeping. A Korean post published at 11:43 p.m. on October 31 described the story as moving and displayed 1,388 views and seven comments when checked. That is the poster's framing and a snapshot of engagement, not a survey. We could not inspect the seven individual comments and make no claim that all viewers cried.

“Our Story” was the advance track for Lee's 40th-anniversary tribute-duet project. On September 24, iMBC reported that WOODZ had written it and that the song and MV would be released September 30. The October 31 angle is not a brand-new track; it is the personal backstory gaining fresh attention through television and reposting.

The timeline is verifiable. JTBC's official episode 549 preview lists the October 31, 9 p.m. broadcast and both guests. The official Lee Seung-chul YouTube channel released the “WOODZ X Lee Seung-chul – Our Story” MV on September 30. An external video-history snapshot for October 26 showed roughly 3.14 million views, 8,182 likes and 549 comments; these are not live numbers. Specific family remarks are attributed to the October 31 post quoting the TV program, not represented as independently verified from a full screening.

Next, look for an officially released JTBC clip of the conversation, first-person interviews from the two artists and newer responses to the MV. The community post's engagement figures can change and cannot establish a consensus.
