Kim Jong Kook reacts to AI-edited photo of him with plastic surgery, "It's weird. Do I look like an alien?"
Singer Kim Jong Kook had a shocking moment with an AI-edited photo showing him with plastic surgery.
On the June 23rd episode of SBS's 'My Little Old Boy,' Kim Jong Kook, Lee Sang Min, and Lee Dong Gun went to a plastic surgery clinic run by Kim Jong Kook's older brother.
At the clinic, his brother showed a photo of Kim Jong Kook altered with virtual plastic surgery, saying, "I tried making him look like an idol."
Kim Jong Kook, who was confident with his looks, was stunned by the image. "It's hideous! It looks weird. Ugh, it's so strange. Do I look like an alien? My eyes look extremely big," he exclaimed.
He also shared, "I told my brother I was stressed because I kept getting double eyelids out of nowhere, and they wouldn't go away. But after a while, they disappeared. When I open my eyes, I can feel one side of my eyelid folding."
His brother's reply, "It will happen again," left Kim Jong Kook feeling dismayed.
Fans can't stop swooning over BTS's V showing off cherry blossoms and his toned muscles just 40 days before discharge
BTS's V is making his fans fall even more in love with him as he shares moments from his life just 40 days before his military discharge.
On April 30, V posted several new photos on his Instagram story, giving fans a sneak peek into his daily routine.
Among the photos was a beautiful shot of cherry blossoms, accompanied by the word "cherry blossom" as he expressed his longing for spring.
He followed up with more photos, sharing how much he wanted to enjoy the season with his fans.
To make the post even more special, V added background music from BTS member J-Hope's song Sweet Dreams and Design by the American punk band Gustav.
It turns out that Gustav was grateful for V introducing their music to the world and even received fan comments saying they discovered the band through him.
In another adorable photo, V posed with CF director Ray J. Yi (Lee Jun Yeob), with flowers in his hair. The director also shared the cute photo, adding the word "flower" to express how happy he was with the moment.
But it wasn’t all about flowers and beauty—V also gave fans a peek at his workout routine. He proudly showed off his toned arm muscles in a picture, though his face appeared a little thinner.
This is likely due to his diet, as he’s been working hard to maintain his figure ahead of his discharge. Before enlisting, V weighed 62 kg, and during his service, he reached 86 kg. Now, he’s lost 10 kg and is preparing for his return to the public eye.
Interestingly, V has been working out at the same place where singer Kim Jong Kook films his popular YouTube channel Jim Jong Kook, sparking fan excitement and hopes that V might make an appearance on the show after he’s discharged.
As soon as V shared his latest update, his name—"KIM TAEHYUNG"—shot to the top of real-time trending charts worldwide. Fans from all over the globe, including in the U.S., couldn’t get enough of the updates, proving once again the massive impact V has.
He is set to be discharged from the military on June 10, and fans are eagerly awaiting his return.
