JYJ’s Kim Jae Joong delivered 15.68 tons worth of rice wreaths to 50 children.
On July 16, Dreame, the company that hosts Dreame rice wreath donations, sent an official to the Korea Association of the Community Child Center (KACCC) to represent Kim Jae Joong and deliver the rice wreaths.
Out of the 23.68 tons of rice wreaths in total donated to support Kim Jae Joong at his Dr. Jin press conference, 8 tons had been sent off in June, and the remaining 15.68 tons were put to use this day.
In total, Kim Jae Joong donated 31 tons of rice wreaths, including 7 tons for his SBS drama Protect the Boss and the 23.68 tons for Dr. Jin.
Since October 2011, Kim Jae Joong had already been delivering 20kg each to 29 children every month with the 7 tons donated at the Protect the Boss press conference.
The additional rice donated for Dr. Jin will support a total of 50 children—the original 29 along with another 21 children—over 17 months with 20kg every month.
The children were chosen by KACCC after it received recommendations from 2,000 community child centers across the country. The final recipients were said to be in the most unfortunate circumstances among the 141 recommended children.
Shin Mi Hye, secretary general of KACCC, said, “Out of the 2.4 million neglected children in the country, only 100,000 receive care from their community child centers. We hope Kim Jae Joong and his fans’ good deeds will help draw national interest to neglected children.”
In the meantime Kim Jae Joong is currently appearing in MBC’s Dr. Jin as officer Kim Kyung Tak.

That’s my beloved “J”!!
WOW, 31 tons of rice wreaths from a single man with just a short period of time.
Kim Jaejoong fandom is touching so many peoples lives, ( and even elephants), hats off !
JYJ fans are daebak!!!
but 2.4million neglected children in such a developed country as SK is sobering news 😦
Ah, what can I say that hasn’t already been said? I adore this man and am extremely proud of him. Jaejoong’s so precious that it’s no wonder why his fans always deliver the best support to him. I’m happy to be a part of JYJ’s fandom in general, and Jaejoong’s fans in particular. 🙂
Jaejoong loves children, and he is going to be a great father one day. Whenever I see him with children, he is always smiling and happy. Thanks for helping the children, Jaejoong. Maybe you really are a goddess! (lol).
I am glad that our fandom power is helping those people in need.
#PROUD FAN ^^~
It’s good to know that there are still people with a good heart in this world
Jaejoong has the power.The power came from fans because of his kind heart.We are following his steps to help and to heal others.To help needed people is a job for the govt to do.But Jaejoong is helping,can his country and govt see that?
Truly Amazing! Makes me want to get out and do more charity work. Great role model indeed!
Awesome Jaejoong fans are awesome. Indeed, Love is a boomerang!
but on the other hand ,after such generosity towards one of the govt organization , they still left them out of support . they (jyj) should be repaid for their active participation in the society. I cant help but be dismayed to the sk govt seriously are they going to play the always ‘taking ‘ part?. hope the govt should atleast be proud of these boys and not singled out in their ‘board’ like some outcast .
May God Bless You Kim Jaejoong, you’re kind heart will reward with many LOVE from everyone who’s have brain & heart, except those SME people ( they have Cirrosis Hepatica, that’s why full of evil mind)
the fans have to have praise too for helping jj gather and donate the wreaths in his name. its such a sign of love and devotion to him and to needy children. such a huge good deed in this world all for the love of JaeJoongie!
