He’s known to spend a lot on his parents.
In the latest episode of Yongtaro, which aired on May 21, 2025, JYJ member Kim Jaejoong stole the spotlight as a guest. Host Lee Yong Jin introduced him with excitement, highlighting Jaejoong’s deep commitment to his family, particularly his generosity towards his parents.
Jaejoong made headlines previously after purchasing an extravagant house for his parents, reportedly valued at ₩6.00 billion KRW (around $4.36 million USD). This impressive property boasts multiple floors, including three above-ground levels and a basement, complete with a private elevator—a lavish touch that signifies his love for his family. The stunning house was first revealed on Funstaurant.
After news of his lavish gift spread, it seems fellow idols couldn’t help but reach out to Jaejoong, feeling the pressure from their own parents to deliver comparable gifts. He humorously shared this experience, saying,
“After appearing on the show, a lot of celebrities started contacting me. They said they’re getting pressured by their parents now, hearing things like, ‘Jaejoong treats his parents so well — why can’t you?’”
With such high standards set by Jaejoong, it’s safe to say many artists might feel a little overwhelmed! Known for his dedication to his family, Jaejoong consistently proves to be one of the most filial sons in the industry, widely admired for his support of his parents and siblings.
