Kim Jong-kook drew a clear line regarding allegations of "grabbing and lecturing" his junior, Zico.

In the episode of the SBS Plus·MBN variety show 'The Manly Travel Guide in Taiwan' aired on the 6th, Kim Jong-kook, Choi Sung-hoon, and Zico were shown embarking on a trip to Taiwan.

On this day, Kim Jong-kook had a conversation with Zico before setting off on the trip. The production team, who had been watching the two from a distance, asked Kim Jong-kook, "We saw you from afar—why were you grabbing and lecturing him?"

In response, Zico explained that he was "receiving counseling," revealing that Kim Jong-kook had been giving him advice.

Upon hearing this, Kim Jong-kook emphasized, "I am not that kind of person. As I always say, my grab-and-lectures go all the way back to Shinhwa. JJ Project, Shinhwa," eliciting laughter.

Meanwhile, SBS Plus·MBN's 'The Manly Travel Guide in Taiwan' is the second series following 'The Manly Travel Guide in Kyushu,' which aired last April. The show documents the travel experiences of three men who enjoy Taiwan spontaneously and instinctively. Zico has joined as the new youngest member alongside Choi Sung-hoon and Kim Jong-kook, and the program airs every Tuesday at 9:40 p.m.
