Oh My Girl's Arin Makes Donation In Light Of Korea's Coming Of Age Holiday
Oh My Girl’s Arin took part in celebrating Korea’s “Coming of Age” day!
The holiday celebrating all those turning 19 years old (the age considered as becoming an adult in Korea) fell on May 16 this year. In light of this, Arin donated 20 million won (approximately $15,570) to The Beautiful Foundation, where her funds will be used to assist 18-year-old youths leaving childcare facilities on their path to financial independence.
This is the second time that Arin has supported this cause. She donated 30 million won (approximately $23,352) to the foundation last June in celebration of her birthday, responding to her fans’ love with a meaningful donation. Aside from this, Arin has regularly donated to help senior welfare centers, elderly living alone, and vulnerable social groups.
Arin commented, “I took part in giving with the hopes that becoming independent is as joyful and exciting of an event for those ’18-year-old adults’ (campaign name) who have to become adults at a younger age as it is for the average youth celebrating this ‘Coming of Age’ day.”
