On August 24th, through a local online community board, a person who identified himself as a teacher from Chungcheongbuk-do, wrote, “An official letter came to the school (where he works) yesterday, and it is an official letter from Jimin about donations,” adding, “I posted it here because I was so overwhelmed.”The author of the post continued, “I don’t think he only donated to Chungbuk,” adding, “I’m sure he donated it all over the country. Jimin is really amazing.
“In addition, the author included a photo of the official school document, emphasizing that it was a letter delivered to schools and educational libraries at various levels by the Inseong Citizen Division of the Chungbuk Provincial Office of Education. The official document, which had the name of BTS Jimin, said that the Chungbuk Education Library will receive 10 million won for book purchase costs.
Meanwhile, according to the coverage of CC Daily News Korea, it was confirmed that BTS Jimin donated a total of 100 million won, 10 million won each, to 10 educational institutions in the province, including schools and libraries.
The Provincial Education Office plans to utilize Jimin’s donation by supporting student book purchases and operating programs linked to reading education.”Donors do not want their donations to be known,” said an official from the Provincial Education Office. “However, we will try to develop students’ upright character through reading various books such as humanities classics so that the donors’ warm hearts can be conveyed well,” they added.
Meanwhile, aside from the 100 million won donation, Jimin also delivered a scholarship to the Gangwon Education Center Association run by the Gangwon Provincial Office of Education last year. It is known that the amount of scholarships is also about 100 million won.
