The Korean Red Cross (President Kim Cheolsoo) announced that actor Kim Sunho donated 50 million won on May 8, his birthday, to support young adults preparing for self-reliance (children who have aged out of the foster care system).


May 8, Kim Sunho's birthday, is also World Red Cross Day. The Red Cross stated that the donation holds even greater significance as it was made on a day that commemorates the values of humanitarianism. The organization added, "This support for young adults preparing for self-reliance was determined through a fandom vote, making the donation even more meaningful with the participation and empathy of his fans."


Kim Sunho said, "Thanks to my fan club 'Seonhohada,' which always stands by me, I have been able to continue making donations," and added, "I hope this will provide practical help to young people preparing for independence."



Kim Sunho has continued to support the socially disadvantaged in various ways, including providing treatment expenses for children with leukemia in 2021 and supporting young adults preparing for self-reliance in 2023 and 2024. Earlier this year, Kim Sunho also donated 50 million won to aid in the recovery from wildfire damage in the Yeongnam region.
