Skater Kim Yuna may be the 'Ice Queen,' but she showed that her heart was warm and as pure as gold through a recent donation for the victims and those affected by the tragic ferry incident.
The Korean Committee for UNICEF said on April 21, "UNICEF's national ambassador Kim Yuna has donated 100 million won (around $100,000 USD) to the Korean Committee for UNICEF as she shares the pain the whole nation is going through in the wake of the Sewol tragedy."
Through her SNS, Kim Yuna wrote, "I earnestly pray for a miracle."

Actress Ha Ji Won also showed her generosity by donating the same amount to the victims and those affected by the incident. Her agency said that while Ha Ji Won was engaged in filming for the last 'Empress Qi' scenes, she decided to donate to show her condolences.
The agency said, "Ha Ji Won was even more hurt upon learning that the majority of the accident victims were young people."
Her donation was sent to the Community Chest of Korea in Jeollanam-do and will be used for the family members who are awaiting news about loved ones.
