This donation event was carried out voluntarily by the fan club to commemorate Son Tae-jin's first-place ranking on SBS variety show 'The Trot Show.' The donated sanitary products will be distributed to female adolescents in difficult situations through support agencies.

Participating fans said, "Like the lyrics of Son Tae-jin's song 'Cham Joeun Saram' (A Truly Good Person), we want to widely share our warm hearts with many people," adding, "We hope that female adolescents facing hardships remember that they are 'a light to someone' and have a happy year-end."

Song Pil-ho, chairman of Hope Bridge, expressed gratitude, saying, "We thank Son Tae-jin's fans who joined together to help vulnerable female adolescents worry less and spend a warm winter," and added, "Hope Bridge will do its best to support vulnerable groups so they do not suffer from winter disasters such as cold waves and heavy snow."

It has become a new trend in fandom culture for fan clubs to donate in the name of artists or sports players. Donations are usually made on artists' birthdays, debut anniversaries, or days commemorating their achievements.

Domestic fandoms are characterized by strong 'cohesion,' quickly gathering hundreds to thousands of thousands of won in a short period. The fandom donation culture is an example of leveraging this characteristic to exert positive influence.
