"I had no thoughts on marriage" Kim Jong-kook, first SNS post after getting married… the reason for fans' mixed reactions
Singer Kim Jong-kook's first SNS post, just a day after holding a wedding with unprecedented security, is attracting attention. In this regard, fans' reactions are a mix of opinions.
On the 6th, Kim Jong-kook posted a short message saying "Thank you so much" along with a photo on his SNS. The photo featured boxing equipment gifted from a sports brand. It was the first post shared shortly after his marriage, so fans were focused on it, but there was not a single mention of 'marriage'.
This led to mixed reactions among fans. Some fans expressed disappointment, saying, "Since it's the first post after getting married, I expected him to mention his wife and thoughts on marriage," and, "Isn't it courteous to at least convey gratitude and the news of marriage directly to the fans?" Those who have supported his music and broadcasts for years may feel somewhat hurt since they anticipated a direct message about his marriage. Meanwhile, other fans supported his decision, saying, "If you know Kim Jong-kook's personality, you can understand it," "It seems he is keeping his words minimal to protect his fiancée's privacy," and "Since marriage is a thoroughly personal matter, it should be respected."
In fact, since his debut, Kim Jong-kook has consistently adhered to the principle of 'keeping private life and family strictly protected', and this marriage was also conducted in strict secrecy, from the guests to the location and schedule, earning him the nickname '007-level security'.
Ultimately, fans' reactions are split. There is a desire to be celebrated more closely due to 'fan sentiment', yet understanding that his carefulness, typical of Kim Jong-kook, should be respected.
Thus, even though he is newly married, Kim Jong-kook has left only ordinary daily posts typical of 'Kim Jong-kook'. It raises interest in whether he will show the features of a 'newlywed' on his actively managed YouTube channel or on unavoidable fixed variety programs like SBS's 'Running Man'. According to a previous exclusive report by OSEN, Kim Jong-kook plans to continue his daily life and broadcasting activities without even going on a honeymoon immediately.
At 49, Kim Jong-kook has finally become 'a man's wife'. Although he has not shared his thoughts on marriage, fans are increasingly focused on the reasons hidden behind his cautious choice and his future actions.
