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 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.
