Jaemin, a member of the group NCT DREAM, donated 150 million won to the Community Chest of Korea (Chairman Kim Byung-jun) on the 27th to support wildfire victims in the Yeongnam region. The donation will be used to support firefighters who are dedicated to extinguishing the wildfires and for relief activities for the affected residents.
NCT's Jaemin stated, "I hope this small gesture can provide comfort and support to those who have lost their precious daily lives due to the wildfires and to the firefighters who are risking their lives to protect the scene."
Through this donation, Jaemin has joined the 'Honor Society,' a group of major donors for the Community Chest of Korea. He expressed his commitment, saying, "I was able to donate because of my beloved 'NCTzen,' and I want to continue sharing my heart with those in need."
Jaemin's good deed is spreading beyond individual donations into the fandom culture. Amid the worst wildfires in history, a spirit of donation is forming among the NCT fandom 'NCTzen,' with more fans practicing the value of 'sharing together.'
Meanwhile, the Community Chest of Korea is conducting a special fundraising campaign until April 30 to support recovery and relief activities for those who have lost their homes due to the wildfires.
