Girl group IVE came to meet a fan who is suffering from bone cancer at a young age in person.
On June 20th, the official SNS account of “Make A Wish Korea” posted photos of IVE members visiting Yoon Ji (assumed name, 10 years old), a fan who is suffering osteosarcoma (bone cancer).
Make A Wish said, “The wish of Yoon Ji, who loves IVE so much that she spends most of her time watching IVE videos while fighting her disease, has come true. On June 15th, Yoon Ji, who had always wished to meet IVE, had an unforgettable time. Despite not being able to stand up from the wheelchair due to bone cancer, she enthusiastically followed the choreography of ‘I AM’ with both arms and shared conversations about her hobbies and favorite things with IVE.”
They added, “Having her wish fulfilled, Yoon Ji gained the courage to overcome her disease and the hope to dream of a bright future. We want to thank Starship Entertainment and IVE for helping us make her life-changing dream come true.”
Make A Wish is a non-profit organization that grants the wishes of children suffering from incurable diseases. They are currently active in more than 50 countries. In addition to IVE, many Korean artists, such as Zico, Kai, and TWICE, have also visited children with rare diseases to make their wishes come true.
Meanwhile, IVE wrapped up their promotion of the first full album “I’ve IVE” on April 30th with a total of 10 wins on music shows.
