*bullshit* if it is running in foreground you can't enter
anything because your terminal would be blocked, the bg
command only works if you suspend a foreground job
with CTRL+Z to bring it into backgrund

you really really should learn to post *complete* input
and output what you are doing and honestly consider if
what you are try to do makes any sense
