In the transmission of January 24 of the Variety show by KBS2 “Stars” Top Fun-Starrant recipe “, Kim Jaejoong, the youngest of nine brothers with eight older sisters, shared his daily life.
That day, his older sister, the fourth sister and the fifth sister gathered in their family home, attracting attention. Jaejoong revealed that when he was adopted, his first, second and third sister had already become independent and “The sisters I lived with were from the fourth onwards.” He also explained that, instead of calling him “younger brother”, the sisters, who assumed the role of lifting him in place of their committed parents, referred to him as “son”.
Jaejoong recalled his first days when he moved to Seoul to pursue a career as a singer. He expressed gratitude towards his sisters for having incurred him with transport and dormitory costs. The sisters, saddened by how Jaejoong never expressed his struggles during his internship days, shared, “He hurt us that you didn’t talk to us when you had a difficult time. You had eight older sisters, but you never called, worked part-time, and it was painful for us. “
The sisters also remembered the first time they met Jaejoong when he was adopted at the age of three. At that time, he suffered from skin diseases and frequently had blood from the nose. The fourth sister shared the way he found the young Jaejoong who walked in the courtyard after school. He also described how he felt sympathy while fighting to eat his meals, often throwing up and eating again.
After his debut, Jaejoong revealed that he had learned his adoption, which aroused public interest and speculation. He decided to speak alone, saying: “I don’t think it’s important that I was adopted. What matters is the present, and now it is what is precious for me “, expressing his profound love for his family.
In the meantime, “Stars’ Top Recipe at Fun-Starnt” observes the daily life of the gourmet stars and shares their recipes. The show airs every Friday at 20:30 (KST) on KBS2.
