After Jaejoong's concert in Taiwan, the JYJ singer immediately left for Thailand. No, not for another concert, but to visit a fan in comatose.
According to Koreaboo, the fan's name is Raphiphorn Nasaarn, known locally as Min. Apparently, Min collapsed unexpectedly into a coma during her travel to South Korea to follow Jaejoong's concerts.
Jaejoong was made known of this by the Korean Entertainment Management Association and his Thai friend. Jaejoong immediately flew to Thailand where Min was hospitalized a day after his concert in Taiwan on April 1.
In the pictures shown by Thailand's "The Bridges" magazine, Jaejoong can be seen looking sadly at Min besides her hospital bed. It was also reported that Jaejoong held Min's hand and prayed for her recovery.
According to Soompi, Jaejoong wanted to help pay for Min's treatment. "Kim Jaejoong notified us that he had made the donation to help pay for her medical fees, but did not specify an exact amount," said C-JeS Entertainment.
"He said he had given a small donation, and we later learned that it was 20 million won," added the agency. Jaejoong gave the money to Min's father, Mr. Theerapong Nasaarn.
Director of Korea Entertainment Management Association Lee Ilwoo stated that Jaejoong wanted to keep his visit to Min without too much attention from the media. Mr. Ilwoo also stated how Jaejoong just wanted to help his fan that is in desperate need.
"Kim Jaejoong said it's possible for him become a singer because of his fans," said Mr. Ilwoo. He also added how Jaejoong pointed that without his fans, he would not be where he is today.
To end his visit, Jaejoong requested to take a photo of the three of them. He then instructed Min's father to show her the photo the moment she wakes up so she knows of Jaejoong's care for her.
