In the latest episode of JTBC's 'Knowing Bros,' hosts Kim Heechul, Seo Jang Hoon, and Kang Ho Dong revealed a heartwarming anecdote about Kang Ho Dong's generous nature.

The newest 'Knowing Bros' episode featured guests Oh Jin-seung , Woo Chang-yoon, and Lee Nak-jun, from the YouTube channel 'Doctor Friends.' Run by 3 doctors, the channel aims to deliver helpful medical information in an entertaining way. 

During the episode, guest Woo Chang-yoon mentioned that he currently works at Seoul's Asan Medical Center, which caused Kim Heechul to joke that Kang Ho Dong is basically an "influencer at Asan Hospital." Kang Ho Dong burst out laughing, and Seo Jang-hoon explained that Kang Ho Dong was not really an influencer, but actually a "large donor." 

Kim Heechul agreed, stating that "Kang Ho Dong does a surprising amount of good deeds." It was revealed that previously, Kang Ho Dong had donated 2 billion won (1.4 million USD) worth of land to Asan Medical Center, with the goal of helping benefit sick children. This was just one donation in Kang Ho Dong's long history of donations to charity, and the comedian also regularly volunteered at Asan Medical Center Children's Hospital, hoping to cheer up sick children.

Kim Heechul concluded by saying, "As expected, he is an influencer... He helps the kids a lot when they're sick."
