Kim Jong-kook Keeps Wife Under Wraps Post-Marriage, Flaunts Fitness Instead
Singer Kim Jong-kook appears to have no intention of revealing his wife, even after tying the knot. On the 9th, Kim Jong-kook shared several photos on his social media account with the caption "ADIDAS X IRONSTEIN."
The revealed pictures show Kim Jong-kook passionately engaged in exercise, wearing clothes from his own brand. Known as a renowned 'fitness fanatic' in the entertainment industry, he surprised fans with his back muscles, reminiscent of a powerful beast. Boasting shoulders and a back as broad as the Honam plains, Kim Jong-kook expressed his joy while announcing the collaboration between a global sports brand and his own label.
This is Kim Jong-kook's second social media post since his marriage. Previously, he had posted a story expressing gratitude for workout items. With the second post also focusing on fitness, it's clear how dedicated he is to his workouts. Even the first 'two-shot' photo shared after his wedding was with another man.
This effectively dashes hopes of his social media becoming a 'lovestagram.' While many stars share their married lives and reveal their spouses, Kim Jong-kook has preemptively shut down such expectations. Having held his wedding ceremony under strict security akin to a 'Mission Impossible' operation, he continues to shield his wife even after marriage.
Meanwhile, Kim Jong-kook held his wedding ceremony on the 5th at a venue in Seoul with a bride who is not a celebrity.
Kim Jong-kook, born in 1976, debuted in 1995 as the main vocalist of the hip-hop duo 'Turbo'. He later transitioned to a solo career, releasing numerous hit songs such as 'A Man' and 'Walking Backwards'. He is widely beloved for his 'Sparta' persona on variety shows like 'Running Man' and is famous for his strict self-management and passion for fitness.
