JYJ’s Jae Joong donates 50 million won to his schools

JYJ’s Jae Joong has donated 50 million won to his schools as a development fund.

Jae Joong has recently donated 20 million won to Kong Ju Joong Dong Elementary School and 30 million won to Kong Ju Middle School Attached to Kong Ju University.

From the donation, Kong Ju Joong Dong Elementary School is going to build a library, a computer lab along with replacement of computers, and drinking fountains. And Kong Ju Middle School is going to award scholarships to its students, purchase books, and provide class equipment for special classes. It will also be used for the elementary school’s baseball team and the middle school’s swimming team.

Jae Joong says, “While participating in many donation activities to thank fans, I thought I should also support the students who were born and raised in my town. It could be greater if I could make a donation directly to the teachers and the students, but I’m sad that I couldn’t. If I ever get a chance, I really want to visit. I hope the students can study in better learning environments when the winter vacation is over.”

Jae Joong sent the message with his autograph on the closing day of the schools before the winter vacation, and the students enthusiastically responded to his sincerely heart.

Goo Ki Nam, a registrar of Kong Ju Middle School Attached to Kong Ju University said, “We thank Jae Joong for considering his school and its students. The students were so happy when they heard the news of Jae Joong’s donation. I’m so proud that one of students from this school has become a Hallyu star and makes a donation to his school. As Jae Joong has succeeded by maximizing his talent, I hope our students can also become talented people of this country. Thank your for providing a special closing ceremony.”

Jae Joong also donated 200 million to fix the damage made by the flood in Thailand with JYJ’s Jun Su and Yoo Chun, and he is currently proceeding the Mango Tree Project with World Vision.
