Keena, a member of the girl group Fifty Fifty, has made a significant donation of 10 million won ($7,700) to the Korean Red Cross, aimed at supporting young individuals transitioning from institutional care to independent adulthood. The donation is sourced from Keena's initial earnings since her debut in November 2022.

In a press release from the Korean Red Cross on Monday, Keena expressed her gratitude to those who supported her and saw the donation as a meaningful utilization of her earnings.

Fifty Fifty rose to prominence with the release of "Cupid," a song that secured a spot on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart within a year of the group's debut in November. However, the group's trajectory faced an abrupt halt when members filed for an injunction to terminate their contracts with the agency, Attrakt, on June 19.

While Keena dropped her case against Attrakt and returned on Oct. 16, receiving her first payment in November, the other three members — Aran, Sio, and Saena — had their contracts terminated by Attrakt on Oct. 19.

Keena attended the 2023 Billboard Music Awards solo on Nov. 19.
