““Running Man Sparta" Kim Jong Kook Singapore Fan Meet 2013” showcase had finally come to an end. Kicking start with the first song “Today More Than Yesterday” where the interview starts after that. For more than half of the time during the showcase, he communicates and answers in English.

Being asked about his love life again, Kim Jong Kook replied that he had not met anyone yet.
