Jun made the surprising confession during an episode of KBS2’s Boss in the Mirror, when he was talking about the struggles he faced in the early days of his career. He recalled that the first malicious comment he received at that time was about how “unlikable” his nipples were. Another commenter apparently made fun of him, joking that they were large enough to hang jump cables from.
The TV star added that these ridiculous comments got to him so badly that he actually looked into nipple removal surgeries. However, doctors advised him against it, citing risks of excessive bleeding.
Jun Hyun Moo admitted that the constant criticism over his appearance had made him increasingly self-conscious, forcing him to get procedures done, such as hair removal treatments, and alter his looks in hopes of the criticism slowing down.
Jun’s candid confession left the other guests in the studio surprised, including his close friend Um Ji In. They acknowledged the emotional suffering he endured, but also laughed along with him, celebrating the fact that he was able to get past it all to become one of the biggest entertainers in the country.
