Singer Kim Jae-jung revealed that he almost met his biological father during his military service.
In the episode of KBS 2TV variety program 'Men Who Cook Season 2' aired on the 9th, Kim Jae-jung was shown offering spicy advice to his close younger brother, Takuya.
That day, Kim Jae-jung visited Takuya's home in Gangnam, where Takuya rents, and continued to scold him. He was shocked to see empty whiskey bottles, luxury brand boxes, and food ingredients past their expiration dates scattered throughout the house.
Using his schedule as an excuse, Kim Jae-jung sharply advised Takuya, who insisted on living in Gangnam: "You don't even live in Gangnam, even though you're in Gangnam. I lived in the northern part of the city, saved money, and bought a building. It's all pretense. It doesn't look cool."
Later, Kim Jae-jung moved the conversation to his own agency's office and, through a recent broadcast, opened up about feelings he had never expressed before to Takuya, who had met his biological father in Japan.

Kim Jae-jung said, "I also have a biological father. When I was in the military, the person in charge quietly told me that my father came to visit. I refused, saying, 'I don't want to see him.'" This revelation drew attention.
He added, "I only received letters, and I don't even keep those letters. You don't have the courage like Takuya, and you don't have the capacity to forgive. It's not easy to forgive someone. I still don't have the vessel to forgive. You seem amazing."
When Takuya said he couldn't bring himself to tell his stepfather that he had met his biological father, Kim Jae-jung advised, "I was worried the same way. But we worry about our family, and our family worries about us. If you speak honestly to your family, peace will come."
He also shared the family's reaction, which left him feeling betrayed: "I used to secretly meet my biological mother behind their backs, but I got caught, and the whole family was turned upside down. They said things like, 'He brought back a strange son.'"
