In a statement released by the agency, Son expressed that the donation is intended to serve as a Christmas gift, bringing warmth to the hearts of children facing challenges in these difficult times.

Son Ye-jin has a history of philanthropy, having previously donated 100 million won to the Daegu Community Chest of Korea in 2020, specifically to support medical treatment and Covid-19 prevention for underprivileged households.

In collaboration with her husband Hyun Bin, Son donated 200 million won to aid those who lost their homes in a forest fire in Uljin, North Gyeongsang, and Samcheok, Gangwon, in 2022.

Notably, Son has consistently shown a particular interest in supporting children in need. Her past donations have targeted children dealing with difficult-to-cure diseases and those with disabilities from underprivileged households, according to Son's agency.
