Maybe you don\u2019t always have to act overly warm. We may not always seem affectionate\u2014we fight all the time\u2014but when it really matters, we\u2019re like family.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He went on to say, \u201cWhen Tukutz went through a hard time, we were the first to show up. And when I struggled, they were the first ones there for me. That\u2019s why I hope people won\u2019t fear being called cold. As long as you\u2019re warm to a few, that\u2019s enough.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size:16px!important;font-weight:bold!important;\">SEE ALSO: <a class=\"see_also\" style=\"font-size:16px;\" data-link=\"\/\/www.allkpop.com\/article\/2025\/06\/male-idols-ex-girlfriend-receives-suspended-sentence-for-blackmailing-him-with-sex-video\" data-from-idx=\"329844\" data-to-idx=\"\" target=\"\">Male idol&#8217;s ex-girlfriend receives suspended sentence for blackmailing him with sex video<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Epik High\u2019s Tablo recalls being assaulted by a senior during his rookie days.
