INFINITE and Jessica Jiyeon sing for a cause

SBS MTV & Korea Cares have called upon the talent of White Entertainment & Woolim Entertainment in an effort to stop hunger for Christmas! Korea Cares ambassador Jessica Jiyeon & INFINITE’s Sunggyu, L, & Hoya hit some of Seoul’s improvised areas to give back to the less fortunate & spread a little holiday cheer for an upcoming special.

“This is such an amazing cause.” Jessica told AKF “No one deserves to wonder where their next meal is coming from, especially during the holidays!”

The singers went door to door, offering food & gift bags full of basic toiletries as well as copies of INFINITE’s holiday single “White Confession (Lately)” & Jessica’s “Last Winter”.

“Jessica is fearless.” Sunggyu revealed “She would just go up to people as if she knew them. She wasn’t worried about if they had weapons or would hurt her. She’s different from other idols we’ve worked with. She’s generous & kind hearted -”

“And beautiful.” L interjected, as Hoya nodded silently in agreement.

Jessica seems to have won the hearts & support of South Korea as her philanthropic activities in 2011 had her fighting for animal rights, aiding recovery & rebuilding efforts in Thailand after the country was devastated by flooding, and helped raise awareness about breast cancer, all in the name of Korea Cares.

“Being named as an ambassador was never a fluff title to me. A lot of performers get pushed into charity work to make their agencies look good. The work I do has nothing to do with White or Girls’ Revolution. It’s about knowing if I died tomorrow my legacy wouldn’t be how many music programs I won, how many CFs I secured, or how big I am in other countries. It’s about knowing that as small & insignificant as I am out of billions I stood up, I used my voice, & I made a difference.”

Once food delivery ended, Jessica & Sunggyu delighted onlookers with an impromptu acoustic cover of Clazziquai Project's "She Is" after which Sunggyu rejoined L & Hoya for a live rendition of INFINITE’s hit song “Nothing’s Over”, before the entire group gave a stirring performance of the 1947 Korean standard “The Sun Shines High Over Silla”, followed by a rousing version of "All I Want For Christmas Is You" lead by Jessica before departing.

INFINITE is set to return to Japan for promotion, while Jessica continues production on the upcoming SBS drama “The Seven of Us”, due out in January.

The special is scheduled to air on Christmas Eve.
