SHINee's Key (Kim Ki-bum) has captured everyone's hearts once again with his generous donation to a hospital that holds a special place in his life.

On December 30, Kyungpook National University Children’s Hospital revealed that Key made an incredible donation of 50 million KRW to support the children receiving treatment at the hospital. What makes this gesture even more meaningful is that the hospital is where Key’s mother works.

Key's mother, who has dedicated over 35 years to the hospital, was promoted from head nurse to nursing director in 2022, a moment Key proudly celebrated on MBC's I Live Alone. During that episode, Key shared how much his mother had influenced him, teaching him the value of hard work and serving as his mentor. He even took her on a “filial tour” to Japan to celebrate her promotion, which moved many fans.

In photos shared by the hospital, Key can be seen standing alongside his mother during the donation ceremony, making this act of kindness even more special.

This isn't the first time Key has shown his generosity. Back in 2019, he donated 10 million KRW to the same hospital. Recently, it was also revealed that Key had anonymously helped a family with the cost of a child's blood cancer medication that wasn’t covered by insurance. A comment on a Pinggyego video praised Key for his quiet charity work, saying, "Thanks to Key, our son is doing well now."

In a recent interview on JTBC’s Newsroom, Key expressed his pride in his donations, saying, "I’m glad that the donation was used well, and I feel proud. What I hope for is that my influence will grow not just for me, but so that I can have a positive impact on young people. I want to be a cool adult, but not a bad one."

With his thoughtful actions and admirable character, Key continues to inspire fans and set an example of kindness.
