The funds were raised through the sale of framed photographs from Jaemin’s inaugural solo photo exhibition, titled “Narcissism,”which took place in June 2023. The event not only showcased Jaemin’s artistic talents but also served as a platform for charitable fundraising.

In a statement regarding the donation, Jaemin expressed his desire to create a meaningful impact alongside his fans. “I wanted to do something meaningful together with my fans as a way to repay their love,”he stated. This sentiment illustrates the importance of community and gratitude in Jaemin’s approach to philanthropy.

Moreover, UNICEF Korea shared that the funds will directly support children and their families facing the harsh conditions of winter. Jaemin’s hope is that this donation will provide at least some relief and warmth during the year-end season. “I hope this can help, even if just a little, in ensuring all children have a warm year-end,”he added.

This noteworthy act of charity not only aids those in need but also inspires others in the entertainment industry to engage in similar philanthropic efforts. The continued support from idols like Jaemin contributes to a broader culture of giving back, fostering a spirit of solidarity and care among fans and celebrities alike.
