Asian Junkie Asian pop. Without discretion.
Former JBJ member Longguo is in a massive mess at the moment, which is evidenced by the fact that he released an apology in the form of a handwritten letter to his fancafe that cops to a whole lot of shit.
“Hello. This is Kim Yong Guk. First of all, I’d like to sincerely apologize to the fans who have been emotionally hurt by my wrong and careless actions. Even though words are not enough to properly ask forgiveness, I am writing this letter to you. I wanted to post this and apologize on my personal Instagram, but my Instagram account has been hacked and I cannot log in, so please understand why I’m uploading this on my fan café instead. I became friends with SONAMOO’s Nahyun after we met several times through gatherings with other acquaintances. I’m sorry for causing many people concern because of this. It is true that I gave Rcy away and that I took her back. I am full of regret about what I did back then, and I am so sorry to Rcy for causing her needless suffering. I apologize for causing many people concern through my insufficiencies in being aware of and caring for my pets. I will not forget the mistakes I made and will learn from it for the rest of my life. I also deeply regret my actions on my other private Instagram account. Even as I write this letter, I am so ashamed of what I’ve done. I will live more humbly from now on, and reflect a hundred times before acting. I can only ever be grateful to my fans, including now. It was thanks to you that I was able to receive a lot of love and make my debut. The fact that I let you down so badly makes me hesitant to open my mouth. The only thing I can say is ‘I’m sorry.’ I will take all your rebukes and advice to heart and work harder to become more mature. Once again, I’m sorry. Thank you for reading these words, even though they’re not enough.”
As far as the stuff he’s apologizing for, well it begun harmlessly enough, as he was photographed eating with SONAMOO‘s Nahyun. Obviously dating rumors followed but they were denied.
“Nahyun and Longguo are close friends and often go out for meals together. However, they are not dating.”
So whatever.
But things get worse from there, as the cat mess that was included in his apology was for him basically ditching his pet, and his agency’s explanation didn’t seem to be completely legit.
[2] the cat issue, we are doing this based on choon's statement and lets see how mismatched the statement compared to the actual proofs:
lets make one thing clear, the rcy issue surfaced because fans found her at shelters MULTIPLE times and tried to contact choon but nothing.

choon said rcy and gagu cant get alone, they decided to give rcy away to a new owner, and couldnt contact the said owner until september 25th and now rcy's under the protection of a pristine shelter now
this, by itself, contrasted the yongguk's apology saying rcy's now with him

a. in yongguk's vlive, he talked about how gagu couldnt get along with not only rcy but tolbi because hes an aggressive male and rcy was scared of gagu. so the logical thing to do here was supposed to be giving gagu away instead? what did rcy even do? pic.twitter.com/Lh3QC1uIK7

b. choon didnt specific of when they gave rcy away, but she was seen on a shelter's website stated as a STRAY CAT on july 27th.
hyunbin and sanggyun posted on instagram about meeting only tolbi on the same day. pic.twitter.com/9d1CIXqOOL

marks july 27th as the beginning of when rcy stopped being yongguk's pet, lets give choon the benefit of the doubt here and said she had a new owner (that they couldnt contact until sep 25th)
but somehow, they still managed to include rcy in the album photocards and photobooks?

there are still multiple fanaccs resurfaced from yongguk's fansigns, of fans asking him to take photos with rcy and how is rcy and stuffs.
choon and yongguk still consisted with their act that rcy was still with them at this point.

in late september – early october, another shelter started posting photos of rcy, where they said they (unknowingly) neutered her again, which left her with a stamp on her ear (shelters do this to differentiate neutered cats to unneutered cats) pic.twitter.com/FZyfkCJQ8C

the posts from the shelter said rcy was a very loving cat that craved for the attention that she lacked to the point she could cling to you.
this cat was obviously rcy, so fans started to notify choon about it, so thankfully choon took her back during chuseok

the funny thing is that after that, whenever they posted photos of rcy, they cropped of her ears so the shelter stamp couldn't be seen.
yongguk sent a flower wreath to jbj95's showcase on the behalf of tolbi rcy gagu
unlike how he completely forgot about rcy during fansigns. pic.twitter.com/OAPivOQSU5

The thread goes on to talk about how people always suspected he was a bad pet owner, but regardless, it’s hard to give him the benefit of the doubt when he’s admitted the important parts of the story.
Then there was the private Instagram shit, which was a mess for a variety of reasons, from treating fans like trash to dating and what not.
start of with this photo he took at the album bunk pre-signing, where he captioned the photo with something that can be understand as him calling fans "delusionals" while expressing how disliked this pic.twitter.com/RctGJ2CkuR

a screencap of a convo from his manager saying fans (usually fansites) wanted to know what he wanted for his birthday and he could add more if he liked, in the caption he mentioned the VR game ans the Return Robot (?) and said he wanted that in a laughing mocking tone pic.twitter.com/d26nDy7N4f
— rach (@ponyofied) November 10, 2018
because those are the most expensive options in the list his manager gave him, in the reply was his ex-girl friend laughing, going "you must be fucking excited" mockingly pic.twitter.com/ORNSBbV9QD

a script from jbj's show "uniform king" and he caption "???who wants it???" and also comment "i definitely won't do it" when the script mentioned about jbj coming back from season 2
self reminder that "uniform king" was filmed long before jbj's disbandment pic.twitter.com/cDH6pBaRAC

the instagram is filled with lovestagram, not nahyun, she's yongguk's ex that he dated during jbj and apparently a lot of fans knew about it but stayed hush because its okay for him to have a girlfriend ofc, kfans arent monsters unlike how a lot of yall want to believe it pic.twitter.com/ZX3plNphX5

There are also other allegations in the thread, involving him treating fans poorly, throwing away fan letters/gifts, disrespecting JBJ members, using misogynist language, and stuff of that nature which neither him nor his company have addressed yet.
While it’s hard to know the legitimacy about all that stuff when evaluated in a vacuum, given the sheer volume of the accusations and what they’ve already copped to, it’s hard to give the benefit of the doubt.
What a mess.
