Now, any commercial use of the word “Chung-Chang” is not legal unless the author gives permission.
Entin puzzled for a long time, because could not come up with the name of the island. But somehow he saw a poster that advertised ballet on ice. The director was Eugene Chang. The poet liked his last name; he supplemented it with the word "Chunga."

Once his friend Gennady Gladkov phoned him, with whom they had been friends for more than 50 years. He didn’t just talk, but cried, he liked this song, for which simple and precise words were chosen. His praise and tears were very dear to the poet, he then realized that he had written a good song.
