Kim Jong-kook, the Reason for Speaking Out After 6 Days: "I Was Frustrated and It’s Absurd"

Singer Kim Jong-kook officially expressed his position regarding the controversy over the private transition of the honeymoon video after 6 days.

On the 16th, Kim Jong-kook's YouTube channel 'Kim Jong-kook GYM JONG KOOK' featured workout content with Yunho, Chanyeol, Yuri, Suho, and others. In the video description, Kim Jong-kook directly clarified the previously released and deleted honeymoon vlog video.

He stated, "There were one or two absurd articles suggesting that the video was taken down to hide a black silhouette that couldn't even be recognized in the video, as it was insufficient to announce the reason for taking down the previous video in a short message while discussing the method."

He continued, "I experienced the frustration of seeing that story, which is clearly unreasonable, spreading as if it were true." Kim Jong-kook added, "In life, unexpected and frustrating things can happen sometimes."

He also mentioned the distorted reports related to the wedding. Kim Jong-kook said, "There are so many distorted stories regarding the wedding that it’s upsetting and unfortunate, but I think it’s also my fault for giving them a reason, so I will take some hits and just try to live diligently and sincerely, looking straight ahead as I have been."

In conclusion, Kim Jong-kook clarified that it was not because of his wife's silhouette that he deleted the video, saying, "Still, you must have been watching for quite a long time, so I’m not that crazy."

Previously, Kim Jong-kook held a private wedding on the 9th of last month, attended only by close family and friends. The wedding was conducted under strict security, with photography completely prohibited. Afterward, he released a video of himself working out at the gym during his honeymoon, which became a topic of discussion as his wife's silhouette was slightly visible in some scenes, and Kim Jong-kook's side transitioned the video to private without a separate notice.
