Stray Kids' Bang Chan has given 200 million won ($143,915) to assist rehabilitation patients and support Nepal flood relief efforts, according to his agency. The donation was split evenly between the Seoul Rehabilitation Hospital and the Korean Committee for UNICEF, with each receiving 100 million won. The money will be used to create rehabilitation centers tailored to patients' ages and medical conditions, as well as to aid UNICEF Korea's flood relief operations in Nepal.
Bang expressed hope that these funds would help people quickly regain their normal daily lives. This is not the first time Bang has donated to charitable causes; in October last year, he gave 100 million won to pediatric and adolescent patients and another 100 million to support children worldwide. Additionally, last year, he contributed alongside his bandmates to help with recovery efforts following massive forest fires in the Gyeongsang provinces.
