The top celebrities have donated their talents to the Community Chest of Korea to create the music documentary ‘Dreams Come True‘. This documentary attempts to offer hope to the neglected young people in the world who were forced to give up on their dreams because of difficult family economic situations.
Girl group Jewelry shared their voice for the documentary, as well as Kim Hee Sun, former 015Bvocalist Chiyeol, Lim Jung Hee, and more.
The members of Jewelry (Ha Juyeon, Kim Yewon, Park Semi, Kim Eunjung) stated, “We hope our song offers a sliver of hope to the underprivileged teens out there.”
Jewelry recorded the ‘Fruits of Love’ theme song “Step“, an upbeat and addictive modern rock track with positive, uplifting lyrics.
The album was put together in an effort to raise awareness of child welfare, and all the profits from the album will be donated to the less privileged.
Check out Jewelry’s song below!

They also stated that this unit will allow the two newer members to show off their unique charms, and that they would reveal a different side to themselves than what they usually depicted while performing as Jewelry.

27 July:
The list of banned songs in Korea continues to increase, as it’s just been revealed that Jewelry’s “One More Time” was the newest song to be served a notice.
Three years after its release, Jewelry’s “One More Time” has been classified as ‘hazardous for children’ by the Ministry of Gender Equality & Family.
Jewelry’s management company, Star Empire, received a notice from the Ministry of Gender Equality & Family about how the song was banned due to suggestive lyrics. The problem is, the song was released back in February of 2008 and so it’s already been airing for three years and five months.
Star Empire stated, “We are very taken aback due to the fact that the ministry banned a song that was released three years and five months ago. We are currently planning to submit a letter of opinion, stating our objections to the Ministry of Gender Equality & Family.”

In the picture, Ha Joo Yeon and Kim Eun Jung are wearing bright and flashy outfits whereas Park Jung Ah wore a casual outfit for her drama filming.

Netizens commented, “Because of the three people, I remember the old Jewelry,” “It would have been perfect if Seo In Young was also there,” and “Park Jung Ah looks really young. Because of her bangs, she looks 10 years younger.”
