Lee Hwi Jae has donated 100,000,000 KRW (~97,000 USD) to the Sewol tragedy.


According to the Community Chest of Korea on the 28th, Lee Hwi Jae called early on the 26th and said, "As a citizen of Korea and as a parent, my heart aches. As a father raising young children, I'm very worried about the 5-year-old girl and 8-year-old boy who were the only ones rescued from their family." He asked the organization to use his money to help the children as much as they could.
