Kook Dong Ho, a contestant from Single’s Inferno 4, has finally spoken up about the rumors questioning his sexuality.

On February 18, Park Hae Rin uploaded a new video on her YouTube channel What Hae Rin?, featuring fellow Single’s Inferno 4 contestants Kook Dong Ho and Jung Yu Jin as guests.

The trio had a candid talk about their experiences on the show, and later, Jang Tae Oh made a surprise appearance, spilling some behind-the-scenes details that weren’t shown on air.

During their conversation, Park Hae Rin gave her guests the chance to clear up any misunderstandings.

“If there’s something you couldn’t say before or want to clarify, now’s your chance,” she said. At that moment, Jung Yu Jin looked at Kook Dong Ho and teased, “Oh? Speaking of clarifications…” immediately grabbing everyone’s attention.

Park Hae Rin then boldly asked, “You were on Single’s Inferno, but I noticed there were some gay rumors about you.” She even joked, “So that’s why you didn’t pick me, huh?”

Kook Dong Ho, however, denied the speculation right away. “That’s not true at all,” he said. Taking on a serious tone, he continued, “I need to be very clear about this. I’ll speak freely here.”

He then addressed the rumors directly, saying, “I’ve seen those comments too. I believe in being honest, so to put it simply, I am 100% heterosexual. Not choosing Hae Rin had nothing to do with that.”

He added, “I really wanted to clear this up because it’s been frustrating to see the misunderstanding spread.”

Ever since his appearance on Single’s Inferno 4, discussions about Kook Dong Ho’s sexuality have been circulating on online forums and social media.

Until now, he had never commented on the speculation. But through What Hae Rin?, he finally set the record straight.

BTS’s Jungkook is proving his unstoppable influence once again! Even while serving in the military, his Calvin Klein campaign ad is taking over social media.

According to Indiatimes, Jungkook’s 2023 Calvin Klein campaign has resurfaced and gone viral on X (formerly Twitter), racking up over 40 million views. Despite being inactive online, the BTS star is still making headlines worldwide.

Originally released 18 months ago, the campaign ad has now surpassed 45 million views, with 189,000 likes and 69,000 shares—earning the title of a true “viral sensation.” Fans are still mesmerized by Jungkook’s jaw-dropping visuals and bold fashion, with many praising his androgynous hairstyle and effortless confidence.

Media outlets continue to highlight Jungkook’s impact. WWD previously reported that his 2023 Calvin Klein Fall campaign generated a staggering $13.4 million in media impact value within just 48 hours! The article even called him the brand’s “leading ambassador.”

His power doesn’t stop there! After Jungkook became a Calvin Klein ambassador, PVH Corp. (Calvin Klein’s parent company) saw its stock price jump nearly 20%. More recently, the release of the brand’s 2024 Spring campaign led to another stock price surge, hitting a five-year high.

And of course, the "Jungkook effect" is still in full force! Every item he wore in his Calvin Klein campaign has sold out worldwide, proving once again that his star power is unmatched.

Even in the military, Jungkook’s influence is stronger than ever.
