The project was organized by Hong Kong superstar Jackie Chan who called on famous producer Park Jin Young and director Kang Je Kyu to help victims from the devastating 12th May Sichuan earthquake in China. All proceeds from the album sales will go towards relief efforts and victims from that earthquake.
Park Jin Young composed the song, extending invitations to a wide variety of top-notch Korean entertainers and artistes. Jackie Chan was in attendance and also participated in the recording for the track called “We are the Asia”.
40 stars including figure skater Kim Yuna, actors Park Yong Ha, Hwang Jung Min, Hong Rok Gi, actresses Han Hye Jin, Kim Ah Joong, singers Kim Dong Wan, Kan Mi Yeon, Chae Yeon, Koo Ju Yup and Kang Won Rae, Brown Eyed Girls, Jeon Hye Bin, Battle, Joo, Jo Sung Mo, Alex, Wheesung, etc recorded the song today.
Most of the stars that turned up to do their bit for charity was honoured to be able to help Jackie Chan in his project as they were big fans of him. It was reported earlier in the Korean media that Rain, Song Hae Gyo, Lee Byung Hun, etc would lend their voices but none of them turned up. Artistes from SM Entertainment and YG Entertainment were conspiciously missing from the event probably due to the fact that they are rivals with JYP Entertainment.
