Greg Dussett (47), a Canadian health YouTuber who shot down singer and broadcaster Kim Jong-kook (45) as a 'Luider (a person who grew body by using drugs)', eventually apologized.



Greg Dussett uploaded a video titled "Kim Jong Kook - NEW EVIDENCE" on his YouTube channel on the 20th.



In the video, he said, "I will take down all the videos that said that Kim Jong Kook may have used drugs," he said. He added, "I apologize to Kim Jong-kook and his fans in Korea."



Citing the results of an overseas study, he said, "Asian men may have 20% higher testosterone than North American men, and hormone levels may not decrease after they turn 40."



"He built a body without drugs, but not everyone can do that," he said. He emphasized, "Even if you exercise harder than Kim Jong Kook, you must have amazing genes to build a body like that. He has the genes to have that body."



Cultural differences between Korea and Canada were also mentioned. Dussett said, "There is a lot of resistance to drugs in Korea, but everyone uses them here. You can get HRT with a prescription from a doctor. I am one of them." HRT refers to 'hormone replacement therapy' in which artificial hormones are injected.



Greg Dussett posted a video on his YouTube channel last month titled 'Was Kim Jong-kook on drugs or not?' and claimed that Kim Jong-kook was Roy.

Kim Jong Kook countered Greg Dussett's claim, saying, "As a novice YouTuber, I can't pass it up because I think it will be too much fun content to just laugh at. If necessary, I'll take all the tests that exist in the world."



Afterwards, Kim Jong-kook revealed that his testosterone level was 8.38 through a blood test, but Greg Dussett said, "The fact that the testosterone level is that high shows that the analysis I did was not wrong, it was just what I saw. What a doctor does. HRT I am an expert on that.”



As Greg Dussett continued to raise suspicions, Kim Jong-kook introduced Kim & Chang's lawyer Park Min-cheol on his YouTube channel on the 19th and said, "It is natural for celebrities to be criticized if they are legally wrong. We will take strong action,” he said.

Since then, the video of Greg Dusset, where Kim Jong Kook is mentioned, has been deleted, and an apology video has been uploaded.
