Heechul said, "I joined 'Ssul Jeon' on its 31st episode and the very next episode was that situation."  Kim Gu Ra said, "Sulli gave you a present."

Heechul continued, "I will apologize to the 'Ssul Jeon' viewers about my behavior. Going against the purpose of the program, I came out too defensively."  

It was pointed out on the show that a lot of people were not only curious about the dating scandal but also curious about how Heechul would handle it.  The fact that he was very taken aback undoubtedly remained on people's minds.

He said, "Truthfully, at that time, I thought about what Kim Gu Ra said when I was first mulling over joining 'Ssul Jeon.'  He said, 'This will be hard for you because you have a lot to lose, so no matter what you say here, you are definitely going to lose something.'  I thought, 'Hey, it's okay,' and then the second time I came out, I felt it for sure, 'Oh, that's what he was talking about.'"
