JYJ Donates $50,000 to Charity

Group JYJ donated $50,000 earned through charity auctions to those in need.

C-JeS Entertainment stated that JYJ held an auction of 13 art pieces that were displayed in last year's "JYJ Membership Week" gallery and have received $50,000 to donate to various welfare organizations. According to JYJ's wishes, the money was spent to buy basic commodities and equipment for various children's, handicapped, and convalescent facilities.

JYJ chose to deliver their donation in the form of necessities and goods instead of delivering it as a monetary fund. Thanks to JYJ, children's organizations received wooden cabinets, convalescent hospitals received patient beds, and the handicapped treatment facilities received electronics and furniture. The additional $5,000 was given to pediatric patients requiring support to receive surgery at the Seoul National University Hospital.

The members of JYJ claimed their joy by stating: "The JYJ gallery was prepared to create special memories with our fans - we're glad that our artwork has been able to help our neighbors in need. We're happy to be starting the year off by supporting various facilities through the gallery's profit and the additional funds donated by our company's employees".

Staff commented that both Korean and Japanese fans participated in the gallery and auction events; the money donated by Japanese fans will be sent to World Vision Japan to be used in a meaningful way for children. World Vision Japan sent a message of thanks in response to JYJ and their fans' consistent support.

JYJ held a large-scale fan festival "JYJ Membership Week" again this year. The gallery allowed fans to enjoy JYJ's music and artwork in addition to meeting JYJ in a fan meeting.

The JYJ gallery features over 100 art pieces including oil paintings, self-portraits, decalcomanies, and woodcut etchings that received wild enthusiastic responses from fans. Thirteen pieces were selected for auctioning off to fans.
