According to Yonsei University Severance Hospital on the 24th, sponsorship inquiries have been pouring in since the groundbreaking ceremony of the 'Min Yoongi Treatment Center' held the previous day, and donations exceeded 200 million won in a day.
The center is a project that Suga donated 5 billion won to Severance Hospital to promote its establishment.
The 'Min Yoongi Treatment Center' is scheduled to be completed in September and will provide comprehensive support for the mental health of children and adolescents, including language, psychology, and behavioral therapy. In addition, various programs linked to clinical and research will be operated in parallel.
In particular, Suga directly participated in the development of music-based treatment programs through exchanges with children with autism spectrum disorder for about seven months, and collaboration with Professor Chun Geun-ah of Severance Hospital.
When the fact became known, not only Army (BTS fandom) but also ordinary citizens participated in a sponsorship relay.
Yonsei Medical Center has newly established a sponsorship item of 'Min Yoongi Treatment Center' on its official website, surpassed 100 million won in six and a half hours of release, and as of 9 a.m. on the 24th, the cumulative donation exceeded 200 million won.
Yonsei Medical Center said, `Currently, only domestic donations are allowed, but a remittance system for overseas fans' participation will be opened in the future.'"Sugar's donation is not just a donation, but also a strong message for social interest."
Suga's good influence, which has become 'icon' beyond 'idol', is spreading throughout society.
