G-Dragon's Donation for Recovery and Psychological Support

As reported by The Chosun Daily, Galaxy Corporation agency stated that the funds were channeled through the Support Fund for Wang Fuk Court in Tai Po, an official administrative body of the Hong Kong government responsible for distributing donations from all sectors to the fire victims. G-Dragon requested that his donation focus on supporting the firefighters and volunteers involved in the rescue and recovery operations.

According to another report from The Chosun Daily, the donation will also support a psychological recovery program for the affected residents and frontline personnel.

"We aim to convey the message of 'shared recovery'," the foundation stated, as quoted from the media outlet.
