Jo In-sung invited youth aged 15 and older and their families in accordance with the movie's viewing rating, and the agency explained that he used all the invitation tickets allocated to him for this purpose. On that day, the actors from the movie gave a stage greeting.


A representative from the Rare and Intractable Disease Association said, "It was a joyful and precious experience for the patients' families who face many restrictions due to illness and caregiving, making cultural activities difficult," adding, "It was a great gift for the children to see the actors up close."


They continued, "Watching a movie while using a wheelchair is not easy in itself, but thanks to the consideration of allowing us to watch from the front row, all the patients enjoyed it."



Since 2020, Jo In-sung has been participating in activities with the group 'Manna' to support treatment costs for children with rare diseases. In 2018, he built a school called 'Singida New Vision School' for children in the impoverished Singida area of Tanzania, and he practices sharing through briquette volunteer work every winter.
