Korean star Kim Woo-bin continues his streak of donations to welcome 2023.

Apart from his handsome looks and impeccable acting skills, Korean actor Kim Woo-bin is also a man with a huge heart. He welcomed the new year with a generous donation to Asan Hospital in Seoul.

In a report announced by Soompi, AM Entertainment, Woo-bin's agency, shared that the Uncontrollably Fond star recently donated a whopping 100 million Korean won or ₱4,399,705.89, as of current exchange rates, to Asan Hospital in Seoul, South Korea. The donation was said to be made to support the treatment of patients from vulnerable groups.

In 2017, despite battling nasopharyngeal cancer, Woo-bin made heartwarming donations to the underprivileged and to patients with childhood cancer.
