Makeup staff reveals donation
Donated 50 million won to welfare foundation and stray dog organizations
Announcer and broadcaster Bae Seong-jae's donation of 50 million won to organizations in need, including the Milal Welfare Foundation and an abandoned dog group, was revealed late through his staff. On the 10th, the Milal Welfare Foundation announced that Bae Seong-jae donated a total of 30 million won to the foundation in two installments, in December 2022 and December last year.
The earlier donation was used for communication education for people with combined visual and hearing impairments, and the recent donation is planned to be used for rehabilitation treatment costs for children with disabilities from low-income families. A representative from the Milal Welfare Foundation explained, "He never revealed that he was a celebrity with each donation, and only after confirming the good deed on social media did we identify that the quiet, generous donor over the past two years was Bae Seong-jae."
