[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Isul] Singer Lim Young-woong's fans are spreading positive influence through continuous donations.


On the 15th, about 90 members of Lim Young-woong's fan club, HERO Chosimbang of the Young-woong Era, announced that they donated 7 million won to the Community Chest of Korea, Seoul Social Welfare Community Chest, on the 14th. The donation will be delivered to single-parent families in Mapo-gu, Seoul.


The fan club stated, "Since fans know that Lim Young-woong grew up living only with his mother during his childhood, we are even more heartfelt and dedicated to supporting single-parent families in Mapo-gu. We are happy to be able to help." They added, "We will continue to strive to participate in creating a warm society together with Lim Young-woong."


Earlier, the Young-woong Era Band (Sharing Group) donated 10 million won on the 13th to the Yonsei Severance Hospital for the young angels fighting difficult illnesses in celebration of Christmas and the year-end holidays. This was explained as fulfilling a promise to donate every year on Lim Young-woong's birthday and Christmas.
