About 150 K-Pop fans get together in Hyde Park to say proper good-bye to Jonghyun and comfort each other.


K-Pop fans hold memorial events for Jonghyun in various cities across Australia. The first event to remember the star held yesterday in Perth, Melbourne and Brisbane and Sydney fans got together today at Hyde Park.  About 150 fans laid flowers for Jonghyun and comfort each other by listening to his music.

Ms Riley Robey is K-Pop fan who organised the Sydney memorial event. She thought everyone seemed lonely and was needed to have an opportunity to get together to say good-bye to Jonghyun.

“We want to remember how we love him not how we lose him” Ms Riley says.

Several more memorial events for Jonghyun will be holding in various cities around Australia.
