Brown Eyed Girls host six ill children from China for Chuseok holiday

Posted by chloejn6 pts Monday, September 5, 2011

With Korea's Chuseok holiday quickly approaching, many stars planned to either go on a vacation or relax at home. But the Brown Eyed Girls opted to volunteer instead, and so they invited six ill children from China to spend a few days with them. On September 12th, KBS will air a heartwarming Chuseok special titled 'BEG's Pit-A-Pat' which documented the girls helping six children suffering from heart disease by helping them get necessary surgeries and treatments in Korea. When the Brown Eyed Girls first met the children, they were shocked to learn that these bright and cheerful youngsters were also ill patients. The girls visited the hospital with presents and distributed them to the children, who were slowly recovering after undergoing surgery. One of the six children became teary-eyed after receiving school supplies that the Brown Eyed Girls had prepared for her; the girls had learned that she had an especial interest in studying. The Chuseok special will show the memories the children made in Korea, and document the progress of their surgery as well. A KBS representative revealed, "Every year, children from impoverished Chinese families die at a young age due to heart disease. This year, with the help of the Brown Eyed Girls, six children were able to receive surgery. For this year's Chuseok, we hope to touch hearts and bring happiness to families by showing them that a small act of kindness can give life to a child's future." Source + Photos: TV Report via Naver
