Yoon Tae Jin: I saw the articles, too. But, I think it’s getting blown out of proportion. I believe Cha Tae Hyun drew a picture of Kim Jong Kook’s ideal type. And when the two began comparing the picture to FC Anaconda members, they said it looked like me. That’s all there is to it. But, the next day, it turned into, ‘Yoon Tae Jin is Kim Jong Kook’s ideal type.’

Kim Young Chul: Do you not like that?

Yoon Tae Jin: Oh, I’m grateful that he even mentioned my name.

A rumor that Kim Jong Kook had a wife and college-aged child who attended UCLA in Los Angeles had also started due to a running joke by Cha Tae Hyun. While such information is taken lightheartedly by many fans, there have been others who were suspicious about Kim Jong Kook’s relationship with female colleagues throughout the years.
