The 10th International Congress on AIDS in Asia and the Pacific (ICAAP10) announced JYJ (Kim JaeJoong, Park YooChun, Kim JunSu) as their appointed ambassador on the 16th of August.
The ICAAP10 is organized by UNAIDS and AIDS Society of Asia Pacific (ASAP). It is the largest congress associated with AIDS, and this is also the first time it is held in Korea.
Cho Myung-hwan, the head of ICAAP10 pointed out, “Through JYJ, as the leading group in the Korean wave, they will be spreading the awareness and prevention of AIDS throughout Asia. This is important as 50% of the patients are aged between 16 to 24 years old; they should be given the opportunity to have a better and correct understanding of AIDS.”
Also, a leader of the committee stated, “This ceremony does not only signify the success of Republic of Korea in our economy, but also in our cultural and social responsibilities. He urges Koreans to be a dignified demonstrator to the other Asia Pacific countries.”
Park YooChun from JYJ expressed, “If AIDS patients can be well-received like how people with hypertension are treated, it can be treated as a healthy disease. As the appointed ambassador of ICCAP10, we want to correct the discrimination people have against AIDS patients and JYJ will spare no effort in doing so.”
Kim JunSu added, “The ICAAP10 will be held on August 26th, gathering 70 countries together wherein different people can communicate and give hope to the patients. These people too, want to improve the society’s understanding towards AIDS, and JYJ will be putting in efforts enthusiastically as well.”
The ICAAP10 conference will take place from August 26th until August 30th, in BEXCO in Busan.
