News reports on JHJ's birthday


Jo Hyun-Jae cutting the birthday cake

Even two weeks after Jo Hyun-Jae's birthday on May 9, there are still several news reports in various Korean media, including http://star.mt.co.kr, SPN Daily, and sportschosun.com. We will just translate the general meaning which is more or less the same.

Jo Hyun Ja
e fans give presents to all his camp-mates on his birthday

Jo Hyun-Jae, who is serving in the Korean military, is still a superstar.

On his 30th birthday on May 9, his fans in Korea and from Japan, Hong Kong*, and other overseas places celebrated with him at the guest reception area of his camp.

The Korean fans prepared the birthday cake and all kinds of food, and the Japanese fans brought over 200 beautifully-packaged presents from Japan for JHJ's camp-mates who were very surprised and really appreciated the gesture.

A Star n Hit official (JHJ's management company) said: "JHJ is very moved by his fans' ardour and sincerity. He pledges to fulfil his military duties to the best of his ability and return in good spirits and great health."


* Hong Kong? We asked around and still couldn't find out who was so lucky to be there. His most ardent supporters celebrated JHJ's birthday at a get-together in Hong Kong, so all the likely suspects can be ruled out. Who could it be?

P.S. EVERKorea also has a ph0to of Jo Hyun-Jae cutting their birthday cake outdoors in the open air, but they do not allow it to be transferred. You can see the cake in our post of May 11 "More birthday presents from JHJ fans" (first one). It's a different cake, equally coloured with the fans' love, and JHJ cuts it with as much concentration and appreciation as he does the other one (shown above.)

  1. So good to see Jo Hyun Jae again. He hasn't changed at all -- still as handsome as ever, and even more manly.

  2. JHJ is very healthy and good-looking. Hope htat we can see more photos of him. His agent should let his fans know more about his military life. May be once or twice a month.
