A school has been built under idol group JYJ member Junsu's name in Cambodia.

A press release by his agency C-JeS Entertainment said on Friday that a ribbon-cutting and opening ceremony for the school was held in the region of Pursat on Wednesday.

Some 500 people, including students, parents, village officials, and Kim's mother, on behalf of her son, attended the ceremony.

Kim, who was unable to take part in the ceremony due to his busy schedule including rehearsing his new musical "Elizabeth," delivered a written message instead saying, "I'd like to visit next time and sing and play soccer with the students."

Kim's latest deed came through the Korea branch of ADRA (Adventist Development and Relief Agency) where he has been donating money since 2008.

Kim, and the rest JYJ's members Jaejoong and Yuchun, one of K-pop's most widely recognized names, have provided support and relief for many other causes for several years now.
