A warm and healthy winter
Angels’ Nest will use S.Coups’s donation to care for the animals living in the shelter and cover their medical expenses. This shelter is a no-kill facility, meaning it doesn’t euthanize animals that haven’t been adopted yet. Currently, Angels’ Nest has about 200 animals in its care. It relies on donations and volunteers across various fields to sustain its operations.
In South Korea, animal shelters like Angels’ Nest play a key role in offering shelter, protection, and medical treatments for stray, sick, lost, or abandoned animals. These shelters often put animals up for adoption. After a certain period of time, they euthanize those no one adopts.
S.Coups’s donation comes at a crucial time for Angels’ Nest, and the people running it are deeply grateful for his help. “We are sincerely thankful for S.Coups’s benevolence,” the shelter expressed. “Thanks to his warm support, the animals can spend a warm and healthy winter.”

S.Coups is a real animal lover
Known for his efforts to promote animal welfare, S.Coups’s actions are not surprising, especially considering how much he loves his own pet. Kkuma, a white Maltese dog, has been a major source of comfort and strength for S.Coups, especially when he went on hiatus for a while to focus on his mental health.
This isn’t the first time S.Coups has extended his support to animal welfare. In September, he donated 30 million KRW to the animal rescue organization WEACT to help save dogs from breeding farms. In February, he donated 20 million KRW to aid recovery efforts after a massive earthquake hit Turkey and Syria.
S.Coups’s acts of kindness underscore the ongoing need for support and attention to animal welfare issues in South Korea. The efforts of organizations like Angels’ Nest are crucial in addressing these issues. – K-Pop News Writer
