Kim Jae Joong makes a 'comeback' on a local TV network!

After years of being unofficially banned from live public broadcast because of his lawsuit with former management company SM Entertainment, JYJ's Kim Jae Joong made a brief appearance as an audience member during the August 24 broadcast of the KBS comedy program "Gag Concert."

Even when wearing a face mask and a black beanie, fans were quick to spot their idol because of his trademark blond hair.

Kim Jae Joong confirmed this appearance by tweeting, "Making a comeback on public broadcast! Appeared without even washing my face, and while wearing my sweaty training clothes and flip flops!"

He posted another tweet, saying, "You looked fair and slender in your TV appearance!" pertaining to his two second return, and he also posted a video on his Instagram account featuring two of the comedians in the program.

His appearance in the program has been gaining attention because he and his fellow JYJ members, Kim Jun Su and Park Yoo Chun, have only been seen on major TV networks through dramas.

In connection, Kim Jae Joong was recently seen in the hit MBC drama "Triangle."
