| Nate Pann “He’s so cool! A hundred million is a big deal! “I like that Soobin has always made small, consistent donations, such as using a phone case that supports abandoned dogs, wearing UNICEF rings, and wearing clothes made from recycled fabrics to reduce carbon emissions, and so on. But it’s heartwarming that he also made such a huge donation.” “It’s not easy to donate to other people. Choi Soobin fighting!” “He’s so kind TTTTT.” | Nate Pann “Fighting, Soobin! The skill to naturally make friends improves after becoming an adult. Though he is a celebrity, he is still a young 2000-born. He seems fundamentally a good person, so he will probably develop well in the right direction.” “That’s my man! So f*cking cool at everything!” “Soobin is really a nice person. He seems like a very warm-hearted person.” “Wow, I don’t know him well, but he donated 100 million? Celebrities must earn beyond our imaginations. But 100 million is still a big amount to donate.”
