Actor Kim Seon Ho's fans donated 10 million won and 5 million won worth of rice.

On January 22nd, Kim Seon Ho's official fan club, "Preference", donated 10 million won to the Dongmyeong Children's Welfare Center, 100 massage disinfectants, 5 million won in aid for the vulnerable and 5 million won worth of rice to the administrative welfare centers in Sanggye 3 and 4.

"Preference" said, "We have been donating every year following Kim Seon Ho's good influence".

Kim Seon Ho, who was reborn as a popular actor through tvN dramas 'Startup', 'Hometown Cha Cha Cha', and KBS2's '2 Days & 1 Night Season 4', was embroiled in controversy last October for revealing the privacy of his ex-girlfriend A.

However, the content of the Kakao Talk conversation with ex-girlfriend A was reported and a favorable public opinion was formed.

Since then, despite such controversy, Kim Seon Ho has drawn great attention by being ranked number one on Gallup Korea's 'Talent Who Brightened Up 2021'.

Meanwhile, Kim Seon Ho resumed his activities by attending the first full script reading for the movie 'Sad Tropics' on January 3rd.

'Sad Tropics' is a new work by director Park Hoon Jung, who directed movies 'The New World' and 'The Witch', and depicts what happens when a boy with a Korean father and a Filipino mother come to Korea in search of his father.

In the play, Kim Seon Ho plays the mysterious character nobleman who seems to be the boy's helper and a hindrance.

In addition to this achievement, Jimin also took home the Fan’s Choice Grand Prize, making him a two-time winner at this year’s awards.

Although Jimin couldn't attend the ceremony due to his military service, his name was met with loud cheers from fans when announced.

His incredible win continues to prove his global influence as a solo artist. Jimin had also won Best Male Artist at the 2023 MAMA AWARDS, marking back-to-back wins at the event.

The MAMA AWARDS praised Jimin for his groundbreaking achievements, saying, “As the first K-pop solo artist to reach 4 billion streams and set the longest-running #1 record for a Korean artist, Jimin has proven his influence as a world-class artist and global pop star.”

Jimin's win also made him the first solo artist to claim a grand prize at the MAMA AWARDS in 10 years, with his achievement sparking excitement worldwide.

On X (formerly Twitter), the hashtag “CONGRATULATIONS JIMIN” topped the trends, while “우리지민이상받았네” (Our Jimin Got the Award) reached the #1 spot in Korea.

Jimin’s ongoing success continues to shine even during his military service. He was also recently named Best K-pop at the 2024 MTV Europe Music Awards and continues to be recognized for his charitable efforts, including a recent donation of 100 million KRW to the National Defense Soldier and Veteran Love Fund.
