With a series of rather devastating scandals under his belt, former JBJ member Kim Yong-guk decides to forgo MCing music program “The Show.”

According to multiple broadcast officials, Kim Yong-guk will not be participating in the live recording for SBS MTV “The Show” on November 13.

The singer has worked as a live MC for the music show for about six months alongside NCT Geno and CLC Ye-eun. Reportedly, the singer made the decision because of a series of recent controversial incidences.

Within the past few weeks, fans have grown angry with the artist after his secret Instagram account where he expressed annoyance at fans was hacked and exposed. This came along with information that he put his cat Lucy up for adoption but later took the animal back. Lastly, after pictures of himself with SONAMOO Na-Hyun, rumors of a possible relationship between the two started to spread.

Although Kim has denied the relationship and written an apology for the scandals, it has done little to abate the backlash.
