The shocking news of the terrible earthquake and tsunami in Japan set many people on high alert and prayers began to go out to the people of Japan. We became even more anxious when learning that Junsu and staff are still in Japan.
The latest reports (as of 3:45AM ET) are that Junsu is unhurt, though he did feel the quake, and that they’re waiting on the next possible time they can get on a flight to Korea once the airport reopens.

An 8.8-magnitude earthquake hit Japan early Friday, triggering tsunami warnings and sending people fleeing out of buildings in the capital.
The quake rattled buildings and toppled cars off bridges and into waters underneath. In Tokyo, crowds huddled together and tried to reach relatives via cell phone.
Its epicenter was 373 kilometers (231 miles) from Tokyo, the United States Geological Survey said.
It triggered a tsunami warning for various countries, including Japan and Russia, the National Weather Service said.
“Earthquakes of this size are known to generate tsunamis potentially dangerous to coasts outside the source region,” it said.
