ZE:A’s Kwanghee donated the award he received during the recording of a program to the Child Care Center.
On the July 31st broadcast of MBC’s show “Minute to win it” Kwanghee successed in completing 8 challenges and won 7,000,000 won (approx. $6700).
Kwanghee attracted viewers’ attention, revealing his goal before the challenge: “If I receive an award, I’d like to donate it to the Child Care Center I went to volunteer once with the members.”
In order to win for the children, showing more serious image of himself, Kwanghee surprised everyone by succesfully completing such challenges as “Throwing a cowboy’s lasso”, “Building a tower”.
ZE:A’s Minwoo, who was Kwanghee’s assistant on the show, gained attention by showcasing his unique dancing skills, as well as participating in 5th challenge “Catch the dropping ball”.
Unfortunately, after winning the challenge in which Kwanghee had to move a table tennis ball from one cup with water to another with his mouth only, he lost in the challenge of making a tower from nuts without using his hands. He received an award of 700,000 won.
According to their agency Star Empire, ZE:A went to give toys, school supplies and rice donated by the fans to the Child Care Center located in Suwon. As expected, Kwanghee passed his award to this place.
Star Empire’s representative has revealed: “Kwanghee was very happy, being able to help a little those kids. He said that rather than putting such signifance in the money, he’ll try even harder to become an actual help (for them) also in the future.”
