The act of generosity aimed at safeguarding the respiratory health of firefighters received widespread attention and praise from many quarters.
The Jeonbuk Fire Headquarters, expressing their gratitude stating:
"The donated face sterilizers were placed in six strategic locations within our facilities and have proven invaluable in securing the respiratory health of our dedicated firefighters."
However, Eunhyuk's philanthropic gesture has been met with mixed reactions from ELFs, who are known for their unwavering support for the Super Junior members.
- “Hyukjae, raise my standard please”
- “proud of you always”
- “Bestest boy only”
- “Oh Hyukjae, what a man”
- “Always so proud of him”
- “hyukjae best boy”
- “Tempting. Then I, who was involved with the work of the fire department in the series, saw this news.”
- “Good boy”
Some ELFs have showered him with praise, while others have raised concerns about his decision. One factor adding complexity to the situation is Eunhyuk's personal connection to respiratory health issues.
Eunhyuk's mother has been battling interstitial pneumonia since 2017 and reportedly has only 37% of her lungs functioning.
In a recent broadcast, Eunhyuk's mother revealed the grim reality of her condition, saying, "We talked about a lung transplant at the hospital. If you have a lung transplant, you have seven years to live."
Eunhyuk himself has shared his perspective on the matter, stating, "I decided to live with my family because my mom was in poor health. My doctor told me to always be prepared. That's why I thought I should live with it."
This revelation about Eunhyuk's family situation has added a layer of complexity to his donation, leading some fans to question whether his actions are motivated purely by altruism or if there is a deeper personal connection at play.
