Fans of singer Lim Young-woong brought a special day to people with disabilities on Disability Day.

Lim Young-woong's fan club 'Seoul Dongbuk Young-woong Era' visited the severe developmental disability care facility 'Dongcheon Illy House' located in Hage 1-dong, Nowon-gu, Seoul, on April 16, ahead of Disability Day (April 20). Twelve members of 'Seoul Dongbuk Young-woong Era' participated as volunteers at a small-scale sports event held that day.

The sports event that day featured programs such as egg-laying dance, shoe throwing, cookie eating, and hula hoop. Twelve members—Su-gyeom, Gyeong-eun, Sa-mui-hyung, Smile Angel, Mae-nae-mi, Yeppeun Gongju Mom, Su-yu-ri, Wang-nuni58, Byeol-bit-rani, Maria, Si-hyeon, and An-gae-kkot—helped run the event while ensuring the safety of the users.

After the sports event, volunteer lunch service continued at a nearby buffet restaurant 'Kuu Kuu'. The members supported the meals by carrying food and cutting it into bite-sized pieces for people with disabilities who had difficulty moving or eating.

The connection between 'Seoul Dongbuk Young-woong Era' and Dongcheon Illy House began at the 'Hope Sharing Kimchi Making Event' organized by the Nowon Education Welfare Foundation in 2023. Since then, they have continued their exchange through participation in bazaars and year-end donations. This year, they delivered a donation of 3 million won, following last year's contribution.

A facility representative expressed gratitude, saying, "As a facility for people with severe disabilities, we desperately need continuous attention from the outside, and the Young-woong Era members have always sincerely joined us, which gives us great strength."

Su-gyeom, the head of 'Seoul Dongbuk Young-woong Era', shared, "While monetary donations are important, I believe the true meaning of sharing lies in visiting the site directly, making eye contact, and spending time together." He added, "Rather, we gain even greater energy by connecting with the users." He further stated, "Going forward, we will become a fan club that continues sustainable service by breathing with the local community, rather than holding one-off events."

Since 2021, 'Seoul Dongbuk Young-woong Era' has continued donations and volunteer work for vulnerable groups in the area. To date, the cumulative donation amount has reached 219.61 million won, serving as a model for a healthy fandom culture that spreads the artist's positive influence throughout society.
