Rookie actor Park Yoo Hwan recently expressed his gratitude toward his older brother, JYJ’s Yoochun, for giving him a car as a present.
Park Yoo Hwan told Star News on February 15th, “I’ve always really liked cars and had a lot of interest in them. After passing my driver’s test recently, I found a car that I liked and pestered my brother about it; he really ended up buying it for me as a present.”
The car Yoochun bought his brother was a mid-sized sedan. Yoo Hwan explained, “I know that the prices of cars depend on the car options. It wasn’t over $80,000 USD.”
He continued, “I nagged him, saying that I’ll try my best if he buys it for me. It was Christmas at the time, and since it was around the time I was preparing for my debut, he bought it for me as a message of encouragement.”
“When I told him that I wanted to become an actor, hyung became worried and said, “It’s not an easy path to take”. I became worried as well, but in the end I made my decision. Hyung supported me and said that since I’ve already started, he told me to earn myself a good result.”
Yoo Hwan concluded, “I’m really thankful that I received such a big present. I want to work my best and give back to my hyung to avoid disappointing his expectations.”
Park Yoo Hwan is currently acting in the new MBC drama, “Shiny Shiny Shining.”

hwaiting yoohwan 😉 haha chun oppa is very proud of u anyway~ his little baby bro XD
yoohwan- ah, u should have shut up abt this! Why announce it to the world???
So why cant he?
sadly I have to agree, he must have known that yoochun are under microscope rite now, every little thing he does is bound to be antis target. This is not wise.
Aishh I’m on mamabear mode.
I think he’s just being very proud of his brother.
Furthermore, he’s still young so still needs to learn how to handle the media, say things that can be said and keep those that have to be kept.
Using the words ‘shut up’ is a little too rough I think.
eeerrmm… I can’t help but feel a little uncomfortable with this line: “I’ve always really liked cars and had a lot of interest in them. After passing my driver’s test recently, I found a car that I liked and pestered my brother about it; he really ended up buying it for me as a present.”
Wow, such a nice gift, ne? Good job, Yoo Hwan oppa! Maybe i should go nagging my sis for a gift, too. =.=”
Dear antis who are ready giving my chunnie wanks:
1. He´s not jobless u know..SKKS+THE BEGINNING+MUSIC ESSAY+NII endorsement
2. Avex paid better than SM
agree…yoochun once said after he leave sm, he can finally support his parents financially
maknae yoohwan,he’s too innocent,so honest.@_@
Am I the only one when seeing news about the guys spending money on something, sees it as yet another proof that JYJ sued NOT because of money, not as a primar reason at any rate, despite what many HoMin fans and antis it claim to be?
I see it like that too…
It’s OBVIOUSLY not only about money…
They do have money… I mean, If they don’t have money after working non-stop for the past 7 years, I’m seriously gonna fly to Korea and burn SM building my self…
¡
Yoochun loves his brother
not bad to buy a car from his brother
my father bought me one to my
Yoochun is just working hard to help those who love
I wish that Yoochun is my bro ^^ haha 😀
but I can hear the antis from here. I can guess that they are like:
“OMG! how can he buy a car to his brother?” “Ahh they are so greedy” “Look, can’t you see? They have money but you are collecting money for advertisement etc..”
ahh I really get tired of these kind of things. I try to avoid them but sometimes they are like everywhere! sorry for the rant, I just can’t help it…
Aww what a caring big brother 🙂
In anycase, I think we as fans shouldn’t get overly paranoid about stuff like this. Antis are going to find fault with anything the boys do, so there’s no use worrying about what they think. Plus it’s not like the boy was sitting around doing nothing over the last half of the year… I’m pretty sure he made a decent amount of money thanks to his drama and JYJ activities. 🙂
thank you,
i agree jeez
Agree too.
As they say Haters will always hate.
Anything the boys so can become a topic for them to harp on.
“do” I mean…
happy for lillte YW! really love chunnie, you are really warm heart borther!everyday i like your personality more!!
I dont know what the big deal when he buy car for his brother! what ppl expect them have to like homeless and wait for welfair! c’m they are supper star and work realy hard days and nights if like that in my country the should be milioner just few shows and they worked,,HOW many years,how many show???? cant buy a car for his only brother if he want?? are you kidding?? alot of family around me,they just nomal ppl,with nomall job after work this time they still can buy house,safe money for their children education school,buy a car for their children when they need go far university or.. Even me co-op student still can to pay my sister’s school fee and tries to safe money to buy her computer when i see try her best in school Iam pround about that!
ppls, open you mind…
guys yoochun isnt poor he has money and has probably saved money too, if he wanted to buy his brother a car then its fine i would do the same for my sister the only problem is that i have 4 sisters so id rather not and they have each so i dont really seee the problem if antis dont like then they can just go away and we’ll ignore it. leave yoochun and yoohwan alone either way yoohwan must of been excited pshh i would blab it too
when i saw ‘saved money’ i automatically thought of SBS Good Morning show where they were making fun of YC for taking all the leftovers home in the past and YC goes ‘well that’s money’! lol… he seems like the type that’s good with his money~
you bet.. just came from AKP and it was nasty,, at the start since some immature comments started.. but JYJ fans worked together to lighten up the thread and divert the flow from bickering to discussing about how great of a brother Yoochun is and discussing what we know of the case from what we read from JYJfiles.. it’s awesome in my point of view because it neutralized the antis.. almost immediately.. without raising petty arguments.. it’s like they could not answer back anymore since its obvious that JYJ fans did their research.. i think the best offense is smart and witty counter defense (plus teamwork from the JYJ fam)..
That’s good to hear!
I dont understand what is a big fuss about buying a car for his brother. Now days there is bank loans everywhere. If Chun walks into the bank and wants to borrow $80,000 for a car he will get it easy with his job as a security. The brand name JYJ will get him any loan. Buying a car doesnt cost that much cash now days as u can pay it off slowly in 2 years, 5 years….
Lots of antis just want to find any excuse to bash JYJ anway. Antis cant think critically. If they can then we dont have the new term “HOTEL girls” as such.
Aww, chun is such a nice big brother.
Seriously, that’s what big brothers do; they take care of their siblings. Mine does. 😀
Whatever they can give you, they give. Big brothers are amazing and coupled with the fact that yoochun is such a aweetheart already, he’s a phenomenal brother! :DDD
YC is full of love for those dear to him. I love him loving others. At one interview around the Christmas time, JYJ confessed they spent all their savings because they had to pay for the U.S. showcase due to the visa problem. Clearly, YC does not have enough money to buy a big thing, but anyway he is burdening himself to make people around him happy. I just hope he takes care of himself most of all, sometimes….
ya, clearly it is not cheap to do a concert in the usa not to mention, they did like three. I am so proud of them.
If I have a brother like Yoochun it would be so awesome, bette yet, if I have a husband like Yoochun hehehhe, life would be best kekekek. I wonder what brand of car did he buy for Yoohwan?
Poor poor poor judgement on Yoohwan’s part to announce it to the world and to explain in detail about how he pestered his older brother for a very very expensive car like a little spoiled boy. I’m not saying YC shouldn’t buy whatever he wants and it’s nice to show brotherly affection but in the world of entertainment there are always people that want to see you go down, especially in YC’s case with his current situation he just has to be more careful. Or in this case Yoohwan should becareful. I’m sorry but as much as I love YC I was a bit sad that this happened.
yes, when i read it I was like Yoohwan is a bit childish but then he is young and this is a translation from korean to english, so it may not capture the real thing.
I read many articles about it in Korean along with all the comments that followed. It’s as it’s translated, YH pestered or nagged YC about getting him a car he wanted for months, then finally YC got it for him as a Christmas present. People in Korea are having a hissy fit over this and honestly I can’t blame them. What bothers me the most is that YH bragged about this to the press. OK to tell your friends and loved ones but why the press? At the very least they should becareful until the lawsuit has been settled. Yes, YH is young and is learning but this is what comes with the territory and he should’ve thought about his brother! I may be harsh but this is reality.
I agree. On his defense he’s still young and learning, BUT considering the circumstances now he should know of the situation and be careful of his words… It really is poor judgement on his behalf.
Agreed. Since Korean entertainers try their best to evade appearing any different from ordinary people, it is not a good idea to boast any special possession even though it befits the status or earnings of YH.
I LOVE Chunnie even more now (if that’s at all possible), than i did before!! ^_~ He’s sooo proud of Yoohwan and loves him sooo much, why shudn’t he be able to buy his little bro what ever he wants?? They r so very truthful and we wouldn’t want it any other way!! ^_~ Whom ever puts them down for this, needs their heads examined!! ^_~
JYJ FIGHTING!!! JYJ FAMILY FIGHTING!!!
wonder what color it is, just curious!! ^_~
so what if they’re sueing for money? the thing is, i feel it’s not about them being so broke they have to sue, it’s about them getting back what is RIGHTFULLY THEIRS.
there really isn’t a problem spending some money on themselves. they’re not even LITERALLY broke in the first place. plus, Yoochun had SUNGKYUNKWAN SCANDAL which obviously generated plenty of income.
antis, don’t give me the shit about him sueing for money issues although he isn’t broke. and yes, i was PISSED at HEECHUL, for making comments like “slaves couldn’t possibly drive nice cars, live in nice houses” wth. ==
i kind of feel bothered with the comments like “yohwan shouldnt announce this to the world etc” hey he’s big bro is freaking Park Yoochun of DBSK and now of JYJ. if he was my bro and i receive such gift from him i will boost how rich and generous and loving and caring and awesome brother he is to me. So what? He give me expensive cars and Im more than happy to tell people that. MY BROTHER IS THAT FREAKING PARK YOOCHUN. Are u jelly?
I think it’s a culture thing. I assume you don’t live in Korea.
even in America, cases like this are nothing to be proud of especially when Yoohwan did not buy it with his own money. Like Diddy who bought an expensive car for his son and people raised their eyebrows and criticized him for spoiling his child.
Woah~ some people here are a bit too hmmmmmmm….
Again joining the Hmmmmmm~~~~
I’m adding to the hhhhhmmmm????…
but to those people who are having problem with this situation… Let’s not forget the cultural difference between each and everyone of us.
It might be normal for them and not normal for you… So let’s stop here judging people what not and what to do…
Let’s just enjoy the brotherly love between the two.
Sorry can’t keep my mouth shut.
lol I think people are too focused on the title and not Yoohwan’s actual words and intent. He and Yoochun are VERY! close, if anyone has seen Chun’s interview portion on YSMM about his past, his number one goal was being able to take care of his family and be there for his little brother for all the years he missed. I dont doubt that Chun would do anything for his brother. Also, when I read this, I didnt get a spoiled self-entitledness(?new word) feel from Yoohwan. His brother got him a gift “I’m really thankful that I received such a big present. I want to work my best and give back to my hyung to avoid disappointing his expectations.” and he is grateful for it. People should be more focused on these words. Theyve both been through a lot in their childhood and I can tell from the way they talk about each other that they have a lot of respect and appreciation for one another. Who cares about anti’s opinion or what theyre going to say? Congrats to Yoohwan on his new career, in the future he will be the one buying Chun a car 🙂 lolol
also some people are acting like Chun bought him an Aston Martin, calm down its not that big of a deal. Its a sweet gesture from an older brother to his younger brother who his trying to make a name for himself as well 🙂
