Jungkook of BTS donated 1 billion won to the Seoul National University Children’s Hospital to help sponsor its operation.
On April 18th, the Children’s Hospital at Seoul National University announced, “Jungkook delivered 1 billion won on the 14th to help sick children and their families.” The donation will be used for medical expenses and integrated care center projects for children from low-income families.
Seoul National University Children’s Hospital operates an integrated care center to help children with severe, rare, and incurable diseases, childhood cancer, and leukemia from all over the country. However, the integrated care center is struggling to maintain operations without sponsorship. With a billion-won donation, Jungkook expressed his hope, “I hope it will help children who are suffering, and I will support them so that they can smile healthily.”
Jungkook debuted with BTS in 2013 and has been consistent with philanthropic activities. BTS, Jungkook included, is part of many prestigious donation clubs, such as the UNICEF Honors Club and the Green Noble Club thanks to the size and frequency of their donations.
