On October 13, ChildFund Korea, an organization that advocates for the protection of children, announced that the Green Noble Club had surpassed 300 members. New celebrity members this year include BTS’s Jimin, Chungha, married couple Kim So Yeon and Lee Sang Woo, broadcast jockey YangPang, and YouTuber HEOPOP.
It was reported that BTS’s Jimin had donated over 100 million won to ChildFund Korea on his birthday on October 13, but the exact amount was not disclosed.
Lee Je Hoon, the chairman of ChildFund Korea, stated, “We’ve moved beyond the time when we would hide the fact that we are helping others. I applaud the many people who have come together in order to create shared values. We will work hard to ensure that our children feel the heartfelt intention of the Green Noble Club members who have made a big decision on their behalf.”
