Shin Jung Hwan makes rare appearance at the '2014 Summer Night Party' to support his colleagues

Shin Jung Hwan (39) reportedly made a rare appearance at the concert '2014 Summer Night Party' to support his colleagues, who he's known since the '90s.

According to an exclusive by Sports DongA, Shin Jung Hwan showed up to the '2014 Summer Night Party' held at the Sheraton Grande Walkerhill Hotel's Walkerhill Theatre (WTR) in Gwangjin-gu, Seoul on July 11. During this concert, DJ DOC, Cool, Koyote, Kim Hyun Jung, DJ Koo, and more performed their hit songs. Right before Koyote was set to perform at around 8:20 PM KST, Shin Jung Hwan took a seat at a table in the VIP section along with his acquaintances.

He greeted several of those in attendance and stood out of his seat during the artists' performances to show his enthusiastic support. Although the concert lasts until early morning, Shin Jung Hwan didn't stay for long and left at around 9:50 PM KST.

Shin Jung Hwan has been away from the public eye ever since his gambling scandal in 2011, and it was recently reported by Sports DongA that he has been dating his non-celebrity girlfriend for a year. Shin Jung Hwan's rep previously stated that he has no plans to make a return for the time being.
