Kim Hyun Joong has been receiving a lot of criticism, heat and hate for attending the birthday celebration of ex-President Jun Doohwan. The reason for this? Because Jun Doohwan was one of Korea's most hated Presidents and considered responsible for the Gwangju Massacre in 1980. Kim Hyun Joong is apparently deeply hurt from all of the harsh criticism and hate. On the 19th, DSP Entertainment had stepped in to release a statement on their website and clear his name.

"January 18th was the birthday of DSP Entertainment's CEO, Lee Ho Yeon. Aside from Jungmin who was filming for 'Human Theatre 2010', the CEO and the rest of the members had an appointment to eat dinner together. Hyungjoong had another meeting prior to this dinner, so after that meeting, he met up with CEO Lee Ho Yeon to travel together to the dinner location. On the way there however, Lee Ho Yeon received a call from the ex-President's party, requesting that he drop by. Upon the request, they stopped by prior to heading out for their dinner party."
Basically, DSP Entertainment is stating that Kim Hyun Joong had no choice but to stop by because DSP Entertainment's CEO, Lee Ho Yeon, had to make a stop at Jun Doohwan's celebration. In other words, Hyunjoong was there by coincidence, since he was with Lee Ho Yeon. Unfortunately, because of this, Kim Hyun Joong has been receiving a lot of hate.
