Kim Ji-ho's Library Book Defacement Controversy?! Underline, Past, Instagram, Actor

The controversy over the damage to books at Kim Ji-ho's library spread quickly online.

Criticism continued after it was revealed through a certified photo that he had underlined a book borrowed from a public library.

Kim Ji-ho later personally posted an apology. We'll summarize the details of the incident and shed new light on past controversies.

 

 

1. What is the controversy over the damage to books at the Kim Ji-ho Library?

 

On the 18th, Kim Ji-ho posted a photo of himself reading along with his recent status on his Instagram.

The post featured author Kim Hoon's novel collection "Alone Alone".

The book cover had a public library label on it.

 

The problem is that an underline drawn with a ballpoint pen was confirmed in the internal photo.

The controversy began when people pointed out that the notes were taken in a book borrowed from the library.

This post has now been deleted.

 

 

2. Kim Ji-ho: What about the suspicions that this has been repeated in the past?

 

After the controversy, some online communities began sharing photos of past readings again.

It is claimed that handwriting marks are visible on books with library barcodes.

This has led to growing criticism over whether it was a “one-time mistake or a repeated habit.”

 

However, there is limited data that clearly confirms the full context of past posts or the actual extent of the damage.

 

 

3. What is the content of Kim Ji-ho's apology?

 

Kim Ji-ho posted an apology directly on social media on the 23rd.

 

“I developed a habit of underlining my books out of habit, wanting to remember the last line of a book I borrowed from the public library.

“It’s nonsense,” he said.

 

They also said they would purchase new books or cover the cost of replacing damaged books.

He promised to be careful about his future actions.
