SEVENTEEN’s Hoshi Pays it Forward to Children in Need

Earlier this month, the Fruit of Love in Northern Gyeonggi announced that SEVENTEEN‘s Hoshi donated 100 million KRW to support children and teenagers in need worldwide. This act of generosity isn’t new for him. The idol, originally from Namyangju city in northern Gyeonggi, made a similar contribution last year. His donations have secured him a spot in the Honor Society, an esteemed group of donors who have contributed over 100 million KRW to the Community Chest of Korea within a span of five years.

Hoshi‘s recent donation will help build classrooms at national orphanages. This reflects his family’s desire to spread positivity within South Korea and beyond.

SEVENTEEN’s performance leader is all about paying it forward. In a statement released through a Fruit of Love platform, he said, “I’m grateful to the fans who have given me so much love, so I wanted to pass on the love I’ve received through this act of sharing. I hope children and adolescents in need, both in Korea and abroad, will grow up healthy. I aim to continue to be an artist who leads in spreading positivity.”
