A subscriber asked how she took the malicious comments that followed her appearance on the SBS variety show "Same Bed, Different Dreams 2 - You Are My Destiny." Kim said, "Many people felt uncomfortable because of the scene where I showered with my husband," adding, "Seeing those reactions, I thought I had gone too far."
She continued, "In my life it was so natural that I did not even think about it. It was just a fleeting everyday moment, like eating breakfast, but I came to realize that for some people it could be TMI, something they did not want to know," and added, "I feel sorry to many people for that."

However, she revealed how upset she felt about the malicious comments directed at her husband. She explained, "Comments about my husband really upset me. On the broadcast, he was nervous in front of countless cameras and people, so his body stiffened and his facial expression became rigid. Because I know him, I know that the look in his eyes that some people called creepy is simply the expression he shows when he is nervous."
She went on, "There were many comments like "His face looks severe," and "They will definitely divorce within a few years." Toward me, some said, "She is pretentious," and, "Is she making her husband dependent on her?" There were also comments about him such as, "His gaze is too intense," and, "You can tell he is self-centered just from the way he talks." I cannot say that what appeared on the show is all untrue, but I wished people would look at others a bit more broadly."
