Reposts workout snapshot after Ma Seon-ho excluded him from prior post

[OSEN=Seon Mi-kyung reporter] Recently married singer Kim Jong-kook has self-archived 'the controversial photo.'

Kim Jong-kook posted a photo on his SNS on the 19th with the caption, "The controversial photo #Jimgungkook instead of #Jimgungkook now it's Jimgungkook. This kid's genes are different... Looking forward to Ma Seon-ho's LA vlog."

The released photo showed Kim Jong-kook, BTS member Jungkook, and bodybuilder and broadcaster Ma Seon-ho. The three, wearing all-black workout outfits, were smiling brightly at the camera while striking poses. Kim Jong-kook, Jungkook, and Ma Seon-ho all drew attention with their impressive muscles.

The photo was originally shared by Ma Seon-ho on his SNS the same day, who explained, "The photo with a lot of stories (Big JK, Little JK joint training)." It was an explanation about Kim Jong-kook and Jungkook, who usually work out with Ma Seon-ho. Later, Kim Jong-kook self-archived the post by bringing Ma Seon-ho's post to his own SNS.

Kim Jong-kook referred to the post as 'the controversial photo' for a reason. Earlier last month, on his YouTube channel 'Jimgungkook,' he said, "We need to have a hearing on Ma Seon-ho. We discussed for about 20 minutes why Ma Seon-ho did that," sparking curiosity.

The story that enraged Kim Jong-kook was as follows. Ma Seon-ho had previously posted a photo taken with Jungkook at the gym on his SNS, but he excluded the one taken with Kim Jong-kook and only shared a two-shot with Jungkook. Kim Jong-kook said, "We discussed this for days. Ma Seon-ho took a photo with Jungkook. We definitely took it together. I don't ask to take photos whether Taehyung comes or Jungkook comes. But Ma Seon-ho suggested taking a photo. So we three took it amicably. But he only posted the two of them on SNS," expressing anger.

In particular, Kim Jong-kook added, "I would understand if I were a celebrity who caused social controversy," drawing laughter. In response, Ma Seon-ho explained, "We took two photos at the time: one with all three and one with two. When I asked Jungkook, he readily agreed to post it. But one had Jungkook wearing a mask, and the other was unmasked. The exposed one was concerning."

Kim Jong-kook said, "It turned out that Jungkook didn't say that," and amused the audience by expressing anger toward Ma Seon-ho. This led Ma Seon-ho to repost the 'story-filled' photo.

Kim Jong-kook recently married a non-celebrity on the 5th, drawing significant attention. At the time, Kim Jong-kook directly shared his feelings, saying, "I always prepared in my heart that one day I would write and announce this directly, but it's much more nerve-wracking and tense than I imagined. I'm getting married." /seon@osen.co.kr
