Kim Jong Kook’s relationship with Son Heung Min was brought up to show how tough Jong Kook’s training is.
On March 2nd, Kim Joong Kook uploaded on his personal YouTube channel with a video titled “A celebrity who brings together soccer players… (Feat. Park Joo Ho, Lee Seung Woo).” In the video, two soccer players playing for this year’s K League Park Joo Ho and Lee Seung Woo appeared as guests of the show.
At the beginning, the three talked about various things related to their recent status, sports, and soccer. Kim Jong Kook asked Lee Seung Woo, “Do you usually just do balance exercises?” to which Lee Seung Woo replied, “I balance, power, and swing. I also do some benches.”
When asked what kind of exercise he did a lot, the soccer player answered by demonstrating it on the spot, saying, “I do a lot of swings, squats, and deadlifts.”
At that time, Kim Jong Kook smiled softly and said, “A soccer player must have a good back,” he said.
“Once again, Heungmin quit after exercising with me? It’s a story that’s never like this,” he stressed again.
“Haha said something weird again… I didn’t even make him do it too hard. I said that, in the Premier League, physical fights are important, so the back is important,” he said with a smile.
Then Park Joo Ho, who was next to him, said, “Wouldn’t you know if that is the case?” and added, “Seung Woo came today and saw it, but his subscription to Kim Jong Kook has been canceled.”
Meanwhile, Kim Jong Kook was said to have been “cut off” after exercising with Son Heung Min because of his Spartan-style exercises. Specifically, on a broadcast of tvN’s “ON & OFF” in the past, Haha commented, “I heard that you worked out with Son Heung Min once, and he pretty much crawled out of the gym. That’s how hard Kim Jong Kook works out.” It goes to show how hard Kim Joong Kook works out at the gym.
