• Kim Jong Kook Laughs About His 'Marriage PTSD' and Teases a Busy Love Life—Could Two Women Enter?

    Singer Kim Jong Kook surprised fans with a candid reveal about his love life on the January 12th episode of SBS's Running Man.

    During the broadcast, the cast members participated in a "2025 Destiny Race", where they checked their tarot fortunes for the new year.

    Kim Jong Kook’s love life took center stage when the tarot expert interpreted his fortune, saying, "This is the year when the fear of 'aggressive women' disappears."

    Tarot expert added, "You've seen so many situations where people say, 'If you marry like that, it will be a disaster,' so you have some prejudice about marriage."

    Kim Jong Kook, who confessed to having "marriage PTSD" (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder), joked, "My really close lawyer is a divorce lawyer," hinting at his past experiences that have shaped his view on relationships.

    The singer, who is known for keeping his soft heart hidden behind a strong exterior, was told by the tarot expert, "This year, it’s okay to say 'I don’t care' and let go. You’ll be free from taking responsibility for unnecessary people. You have a 'good boy complex,' and any wounds from past relationships will heal this year."

    When it came to his love fortune, the tarot expert revealed, "Your love life looks promising, but the key is you want to be confessed to," with Haha quickly agreeing, "He can’t make a move. His pride is too strong."

    Kim Jong Kook, who has never confessed first in his relationships, smiled at the prediction. "In the second half of the year, my love life will be busy. When there’s no woman, there’s none, but when it happens, two women will come at once," he said, leaving fans intrigued by his upcoming love journey.
