Earlier this month, former K-Pop star Yoo Seung Jun updated his Weibo with the following message: "Tonight I'm going to see a friend who I haven't seen in a really long time. So glad I get to spend some time with Kim Jong Gook." He later uploaded a few pictures with his close friend along with the caption, "Jong Gook left for Korea today. I wanted to go with him, but I couldn't. I love my country [Korea], and I miss it. Please support my friend, Kim Jong Gook." In the photos, the two seem to really be enjoying their time together. Both are smiling and look genuinely happy to see each other. Kim Jong Gook happened to be in China for the "Running Man - China special" episode, and spent some time with Yoo Seung Jun's family after his shoot was over. The two are of the same age, and met on a TV program back in 2000. They got to know each other better by attending the "Year of the Dragon Club", put together for celebs, by celebs. Though Yoo Seung Jun ran into some trouble with the Korean government for dodge drafting and was banned from returning to Korea, the two kept in touch over the years. Source & Image : ENews24 via Nate
