Kim Hyun Joong's agency revealed, "When Kim Hyun Joong returned to Korea after concluding the fan meeting tour, he was touched greatly when he heard that one of his fan clubs donated 10 million KRW (~ 8,860 USD) to the 'Summer Campaign for Senior Citizens Living Alone'. He wanted to show gratitude to his fans and wanted to help out as much as he can, and thus, decided to donate to the same foundation". He continued, "Kim Hyun Joong stated that he wanted to support the elderly who are suffering from the heat, and the college students who are studying hard even in the midst of hardships. We hope that Kim Hyun Joong and his fans' sincerity reached out to many people."
30 million KRW dollars were donated towards the 'Summer Campaign for Seniors Citizens Living Alone', while 20 million KRW will be used for the 'Kim Hyun Joong Scholarship', which his fan club established for college students who have financial troubles.
