Actor Lee Seung-gyu, who left a strong impression as the school violence villain in the Netflix series 'True Education', has joined a donation to support students who are victims of school violence.

According to Lee Seung-gyu's agency JG Entertainment on the 18th, Lee Seung-gyu recently donated to BTF Pure Tree Foundation (hereinafter BTF), which supports students who are victims of school violence, contributing to school violence prevention and support for victim students.

BTF is a leading domestic school violence prevention nonprofit public interest corporation (youth NGO) established by Kim Jong-gi Lee (President), who lost his child to school violence. BTF has consistently carried out school violence prevention education and support activities for victim students and their families. Kim Jong-gi Lee (President)'s story was introduced on tvN's 'You Quiz on the Block' and received much empathy.

In the first episode of 'True Education', Lee Seung-gyu played Ryu Jun-hyeong, the son of Ryu Gwang-pil (Rep.), a future presidential candidate, and a power-type school violence perpetrator who dominates the school with violence, revealing a strong presence. Lee Seung-gyu raised the immersion of the drama with his cold yet realistic villainous acting, leaving a deep impression on not only domestic but also global viewers. He became a hot topic, even earning the nickname 'clean trash' among viewers, and is being noted as a rising actor of the next generation, with a sharp increase in SNS followers after the work was released.

An agency representative said, "We heard the actor's intention and thought it was a meaningful decision," and added, "We decided to spread the word together so that this positive influence can reach more people."

Meanwhile, 'True Education' topped the Netflix global non-English series list immediately after its release and has continued its global success by holding the top spot for two consecutive weeks. In particular, it recorded number one in 46 countries and TOP 10 in 91 countries, establishing itself as a global hit.
