Aug 8, 2019 at 3:11 comment added Zhi-Wei Sun The identity (1) is a special case of a much more general result, see Theorem 1.2 of my preprint arxiv.org/abs/1908.02155.
Aug 2, 2019 at 8:28 comment added Fedor Petrov @user64494 everywhere:) for even $n$ we indeed have zero denominators (say, for $j=0,k=n/2$ and others), it is senseless. In both below solutions the logarithmic derivative of some polynomial at some point is calculated, and for even $n$ this point would be a root of the polynomial.

Aug 1, 2019 at 20:59 comment added Fedor Petrov @user64494 but the conjecture was about odd integers
Aug 1, 2019 at 19:20 comment added user64494 If we put $n=8$ in the sum under consideration, then up to Maple and Mathematica we face with division by zero. E.g. restart; n := 8; add(add(1/(cos(2*Pi* j/n) + cos(2*Pi* k/n)), k = 0 .. n - 1), j = 0 .. n - 1); Error, numeric exception: division by zero
