Hallyu Star Jung Joon Ho will be knighted in France. The Jurade de Saint-Emilion, an organization that promotes the wines of Saint-Emilion in the Bordeaux region, selects celebrities from around the world to be knighted, and he was picked to be honored this year.
The organization holds two wine festivals every year and presents its honors. The title of Protecteurs de la Jurade is given to heads of state, while he will be named Pair de la Jurade, awarded to VIPs in the fields of politics, culture, the arts, agriculture and national defense.
Jung Joon Ho was selected in recognition of his friendship with Château Angélus, a prominent winery in the Bordeaux region, and his dedication to charitable works.
The knighting ceremony will take place in the town of Saint-Emilion near the city Bordeaux. Jung Joon Ho will arrive in Bordeaux on Saturday for the ceremony the next day, and visit a wine cave built by famous Italian architect Mario Botta, who also designed the Kyobo Building in Gangnam, southern Seoul.
