While running the hospital, Director Son met many sick people and, seeing those unable to receive treatment due to financial difficulties, pledged to practice sharing to help them.

He has consistently made donations for medical advancement and supported juniors at his alma mater, and in 2017, he joined as the 125th member of the Busan Honor Society, extending warmth to places in need.
