Typhoon Destruction in the Philippines, K-pop Comes Together to Send Messages of Hope

Hello everyone, the writers here at KpopStarz would like to dedicate an article to the people of the Philippines as they have suffered a terrible typhoon that impacted the country a few weeks ago. I will also explain about K-Pop stars that are sending messages and condolences for the people that have died thus far.

People from all over Asia are coming together to help the victims that suffered this devastation. Stars are also sending messages of hope as well as encouragement to the people.

The Philippines were attacked by an huge typhoon that was named "Yolanda" or "Haiyan" and thousands are currently suffering by not having food and water. Aid is on the way so hopefully the people can hang on as the supplies are on the way and people from other countries are making donations to help.

Stars Send Messages as well as Prayers

News media Manila Bulletin stated in an article that K-Pop stars are expressing "their sympathy and prayers for the Philippines and for the families affected by Super Typhoon "Yolanda" which caused widespread devastation and killed hundred."

When something like this occurs, thousands will step up and come out to send prayers and messages which the people of the Philippines are truly thankful for.

Who Sent Messages and How They are Showing Support

Manila Bulletin then further enumerated which K-Pop stars have sent their messages --  Nickhun, Lee Min Ho, Sandara Park, Aziatix, and Ricky Kim.

What Nickhun is doing to support the people of the Philippines is he "held his Benchsetter Fun Meet at Trinoma and SM Mall of Asia." Nickhun, is showing his support by doing this fun meet to help the people. The way he is doing this is by "signing Bench t-shirts" which "will be auctioned off and the proceeds will be donated for the victims." Truly great and one that will help the country as well as the people.

Nickhun's message for the people when he was at the "Bench press conference" last week was for the families to "stay strong and keep your hopes up and never give up."

The people are staying strong as well as keeping their hopes up as they wait for supplies to arrive. Actor Lee Min Ho also sent his message to the people by telling "Filipinos not to lose their faith." He then goes on to say on his Facebook page, "I heard that there was great damage by typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines. I hope everyone is safe now. Please don't lose faith. We're thinking of you from Korea."

The people of South Korea are truly sending out their messages and are encouraging the people of the Philippines to stay strong. 2NE1's Sandara Park also requested for prayers as she too is thinking about the people and hopes that they are okay.

Dara stated, “Please pray for the Philippines cause of the typhoon damage. Sana ok kayong lahat (I hope you are all okay)" which she twitted on her Twitter account.

Ricky Tim who is an Korean and American actor as well as model posted on his Twitter board by saying, "Sending prays and thoughts out to the Philippines." Finally, Asian- American group Aziatix sent their message by saying, "Praying for The Philippines...God Speed #TyphoonHaiyan."

So as you can see, Korean stars have the Filipino people in their hearts and are not forgetting about them. The people of the Philippines need all the help that they can get. We invite you to participate in relief efforts, especially through the Philippine Red Cross.
