Netizens are revisiting and scrutinizing Junsu’s past actions following recent controversies.
On online forums, users are sharing numerous posts uncovering past instances involving Junsu, sparked by his recent scandal with a BJ and other issues that had previously flown under the radar.
One widely discussed post revolves around Junsu’s eight kittens, reportedly acquired from a pet shop in 2010. What shocked netizens was that Junsu adopted not just one but eight cats within two years. In 2011, he mentioned on social media that he had sent at least two of the cats to a new home, raising questions about his responsibility and intentions.
Between 2010 and 2012, Junsu allegedly displayed the cats in a showcase at his mother’s cosmetics store for fans to view from the outside. After this period, none of the cats were seen again, and fans were left in the dark about their whereabouts. It is evident that neither Junsu nor his family has owned cats since then.
Furthermore, reports suggest that Junsu’s twin brother either owns or has owned a pet shop, leading to speculation that the cats might have been temporarily used to promote his brother's business.
Fans also noted that, apart from his current pet dog, Junsu has owned five other dogs, whose fates also remain unknown.
What has drawn even more outrage is an audio clip from an old radio show featuring Junsu and Jaejoong, where they recounted a shocking incident involving a frog.
During the program, Junsu and Jaejoong vividly described how they, along with Yoochun, accidentally dropped a live frog into a toilet and then intentionally flushed it. The conversation, delivered with laughter and graphic details, left netizens horrified.
The dialogue, as heard in the audio clip, is as follows:
Jaejoong: A few days ago, by accident…
DJ (Jang Geun Seok): Yes?
Jaejoong: Xia (Junsu), Micky (Yoochun), and I…
Junsu: Hahaha!
Jaejoong: A frog…
DJ: What?
Yoochun and Junsu: Ah!
Jaejoong: A frog!!
DJ: Yes?
Jaejoong: Dropped a frog into the toilet!
DJ: Yes?
Jaejoong: And flushed it!
DJ: What?
Jaejoong: The appearance of the frog that was gasping for its life in the water was… wow…
DJ: As it was circling down?
Junsu: Yes!
DJ: It probably would have yelled ‘No!'
All: (LOL)
Junsu: I saw those sparkling eyes of the frog…
DJ: The tears…
Jaejoong: We should have really sent that frog to Hollywood for them to raise it.
Junsu: The acting… the expressive acting of the frog… it was really something.
Jaejoong: Yes, too good to just rot in our country.
DJ: Wow…
Junsu: I'm sure it's doing well now in some sewer somewhere.
Yoochun: (LOL) Poor thing.
DJ: It probably went to fresher waters, right?
Junsu: Yes~
Despite the radio host and the members jokingly suggesting that the frog had “gone somewhere better” or “was now living well in the sewer,” netizens pointed out that such an act would have caused the frog to die painfully due to the water pressure.
Netizens reacted strongly to the resurfaced audio and the revelations surrounding Junsu’s pets:
“He put a frog in the toilet, flushed it, and talked about it as a funny story on the radio, even though the water pressure tore it apart.”
“What kind of person does this? It’s seriously disturbing.”
“Please, give an explanation.”
“Oh my god, the frog story is so shocking. How can he talk about something so pitiful like that?ㅠ”
“Where did all those cats and dogs go…?”
“If he took proper care of the dogs and cats, they should still be alive. What happened to them?”
“The frog story is disgusting. Did the fans really stay quiet about him sharing this on a broadcast? That’s revolting.”
“There’s even a cat missing from that photo. He had an Abyssinian too.”
“How many animals did he have? Even considering the lack of awareness in those days, having just one would be one thing, but it’s like he turned his house into a pet shop.”
“He treated them like accessories.”
“The frog story is horrifying…;;;”
“Wow…”
“Does he think of them as dolls or something? It’s creepy.”
“This is truly the worst. There’s not a single animal he took responsibility for until the end. I never want to see this guy on TV again.”
“This just makes me curse out loud.”
“He bought them when they were cute, displayed them, and then they all disappeared…?”
“Other things I could chalk up to greed, but this is downright insane and makes me question his humanity.”
“Knowing this and still liking him as a fan just seems crazy.”
“Wow… the more that comes out, the more disappointing he gets.”
“The scandals just never end.”
“He’s done so much wrong, my goodness.”
“Does he feel no guilt at all toward those animals…?”
