An actress with a big charitable heart Seo YeJi with empathy for ppl's sufferings. Cheers to her! There're quite a few SK artists making charitable donations as recent as BTS RM to their fav charity outfits. But what made my tears flowed with utter sadness so early this Mon morn was reading an online CNN news of North Korean refugees, a mother and small 6 yr old son who died of starvation in their home!! It seems they fled from NK seeking refuge for better life in SK only to die tragically of starvation due to ur govt refusal to provide financial aid to them! Coincidentally read the news online as Chen's Beautiful Goodbye song filled up my home! The news and Chen's BGdbye made me wept with sheer utter sadness. Till this very moment I'm unable wrap my head around the tragic news. Why SK affluent govt ignore aid to the mother and small son! Then we'd read news flashes of artists donating to even animal/pet care shelter center! It seems pet's life is worth than one two or more needy human life! Hoping the sad tragedy is a wake-up call highlighting greater awareness among SK successful artists, kpop idols etc to reach out to their own poor underprivileged country folks. I realise life is not only all abt the crazy Hallyu wave - song and dance of Kpop idols, K-drama etc etc. I'm thousand miles across ocean from SK but I weep for the starving dead mother and son trying sorrowfully to imagine the thoughts of both dying mother and son as they breathe their last earthly moment. So so sad..........
