Fans of JYJ‘s Yoochun have completed a fantastic charity project to show support for his SBS drama, ‘Rooftop Prince‘.

Yoochun’s fan support union spent six weeks collecting Naver‘s charity currency, called Happy Beans, starting from February 15th until March 31st. They managed to gather about $11,500 USD, which they used to purchase and donate rice and ramen for groups like the eldery, multi-cultural families, single mother families, the disabled, and the impoverished.

Over 179 organizations signed up for the project, and 42 were chosen. The organizations thanked the fans by leaving messages like, “Yoochun seemed like a figure so far removed from us, but he now seems so close,” and “We were worried over running out of rice, but we are now able to give the elderly meals thanks to the fans of Yoochun.”

In related news, JYJ has been continuing their charity projects, such as their numerous donations to world causes, in addition to their participation in the ‘Mango Tree Project‘ with World Vision.

That's really nice of them ^_^

Also, I am loving Rooftop Prince a lot. The prince's entourage cracks me up like no other.

If that is the case then I want whichever mod who did it to tell me.

And. Haven't you been warned by mods before for tampering your posts/deleting/freezing comments. A bit suspicious if you ask me.

Mod- I actually really appreciate that. I mean, I'm all for making fun of celebrities, and calling them out, etc, but there's also timing to consider. That type of comment in this type of article is clearly just trying to stir shiz up.

Fans like these make me really happy. I wish every single fan out there was as nice and supporting... if you catch my drift.

News about fans of JYJ NOT being crazy? Wow.

funny how people are surprised and don't realize that fans of any of the DB5K members have been donating to charities since years back

(at first, it seemed like they were diluting the donations to too many charities...lol, but on second thought, even ~$300 per charity is a lot and does make a difference. glad they did this)
