K-pop star Kim Jaejoong will be participating in the Japan Mask Project, organised by Japanese non-profit Japan Heart, to provide masks and financial aid to medical institutions in need. Jaejoong will be working alongside other Japanese public figures, including athletes and artistes.

In his comment on the Japan Mask Project page, Jaejoong said: "My chest aches, watching healthcare professionals at stake facing the risks to save people fighting with Covid-19. There are still things we can do to prevent the healthcare system collapse. I want to support medical professionals through this project."
