Some of the comments on his video were:"Fun fact: Kjk is a singer not a body builder. He has no reason to use drugs to build his body with his current popularity.""In Korea claims like this could have ruined his reputation and career, that’s how drastically gossip can effect celebrities here, even if it’s unfounded. It makes me sad to see such lies spread.""Y’all gotta remember he’s a Korean celebrity and if he were to get caught with any sort of drug, it would ruin his career. Historically KjK has had a clean slate as far as scandals go, so much so that a tabloid called dispatch pretty much gave up on tracking I’m and trying to find dirt. I’m positive he wouldn’t do anything to jeopardize his image and career. Also he’s not some action star that capitalizes on his body, he’s a singer. He works out for his own health and to help his back issues.""Greg, I can see why all this backlash you've been receiving from the Korean community seems undue, and I have to admit that some of the criticisms are definitely out of proportion and comments such as "you're just jealous" are unfounded and hateful. However, you have to understand that there is a good reason for KJK's fans, to say nothing of the man himself, to be quite upset. Yes, there's technically nothing wrong with using enhancers, but given KJK's unique circumstances, the suspicions you raised could've done some irreversible damage to his career. Firstly, using enhancing drugs would be a contradiction to the philosophy and lifestyle he's been advocating very passionately. He displays his body as a testament to his old-school 'no pain, no gain', 'input = output' moral. It's this mindset that the Korean public found so attractive and admirable, and which became a major reason for his popularity."yehet said sehun@oohshohan@allkpop LMAOO when a person doesn’t like to see another person happy with how they are. they start making accusations00:17 AM · Nov 5, 20211102@allkpop LMAOO when a person doesn’t like to see another person happy with how they are. they start making accusationsHanaKookie@kjk76india@allkpop With hard work & mental strength, you can achieve the results you want - Kim Jong Kook00:31 AM · Nov 5, 20211466@allkpop With hard work & mental strength, you can achieve the results you want - Kim Jong KookIn response to the criticism, the Canadian bodybuilder posted another video on November 6 in which he refuted the articles that had been published by various media outlets, claiming that the reports had skewed his words and exaggerated his claims.
