RM, the leader of the globally acclaimed K-pop group BTS, recently exhibited his philanthropic spirit by donating a substantial sum of $74 Million to the Korean Society of Forensic Science. The purpose of this remarkable contribution is to support the training and development of experts in the field.
A Humble Contribution
The Korean Society of Forensic Science confirmed this generous donation on the 27th, revealing that it came about through RM's connection with forensic scientist Professor Lee Ho, affiliated with Chonbuk National University.
The two had crossed paths during RM's participation in the tvN entertainment program, 'A Dictionary of Mysterious Human Trivia that is Useless to Know - Useful Jobs.'
RM expressed his motivation behind the contribution, stating his desire to make a positive impact and drive change. He emphasized the importance of using his platform to inspire and empower others.
"I heard that the process of becoming a forensic scientist is very difficult. I sympathize with the importance of forensic science, and I sincerely respect those who are walking the path of a forensic scientist with a sense of duty."
"I will contribute a little to the training and support of forensic scientists and the development of the Forensic Science Society. I hope this happens."
It's notable that the current count of active forensic scientists in South Korea stands at a mere 60, with a starkly low annual influx of 2 to 3 applicants from a medical background into the field of forensic medicine.
Netizens have been buzzing with comments following BTS RM's staggering donation of over $74 million, which has sparked controversy. The real reason behind his generous act has finally been revealed, prompting a flurry of reactions from online users.
Netizens' comments:
- "RM is setting a great example for other celebrities and individuals with means. It's important to give back and support causes that matter."
- "RM's donation is a reminder that we all have the power to make a positive impact, no matter how big or small."
- ""I can't believe the amount of money RM donated. It's truly inspiring and shows his genuine commitment to making a difference in the world"
- "This donation from RM just goes to show the kind of person he is. He's not only talented, but also incredibly generous and compassionate."
- "Wow, RM's donation is absolutely incredible! It's amazing to see someone with such influence using their wealth to make a positive impact on society."
RM's substantial donation will find allocation towards the Korean Society of Forensic Science's initiatives related to talent development, academic research, and enhancements in the forensic system.
In recognition of his exceptional generosity, the Korean Society of Forensic Science intends to honor RM with a commemorative plaque and extend an honorary membership in their esteemed organization.
