Singer Kim Jaejoong mentioned his family.

On the 15th, the YouTube channel 'Neighborhood Friend Kangnami' posted a video titled, "Kim Jaejoong has 8 sisters and 34 family members, and he even gives them allowances? The day Kangnami became a relatively filial son."

In the video, Kim Jaejoong said, "I have 8 sisters, many of whom are close in age. I think about how hard it must have been for my parents, so I feel like I must always do well by them."

When Kangnam asked, "Have you ever fought with your sisters?" Kim Jaejoong replied, "I fought with my sisters. I only fought with my youngest sister. I was adopted when I was young, and there is less than a year difference between us. My sister never had a birthday party because she wanted to hide that we were less than a year apart. If we celebrated her real birthday, it would feel like I was a fake sibling," he shared, revealing a touching story.

Kim Jaejoong also surprised viewers by saying, "The number of family members keeps increasing. I have 8 sisters, 8 brothers-in-law, and if each has one child, that's 8 more. If my nieces and nephews get married and have children, I will become a grandfather."

When asked about giving New Year’s money, he joked, "I don't know if I'm lucky or unlucky, but I always have a schedule during the holidays." Kangnam then asked, "Don't you give your parents 5 million won each time you see them?" to which Kim Jaejoong confirmed, "Yes, I give my parents 5 million won each time I see them."

Hearing this, Kangnam's mother expressed her disappointment, saying, "I've never received that," to which Kim Jaejoong humorously suggested, "Give her a card," prompting laughter.
