On February 8, Stray Kids member I.N marked his birthday by making a meaningful donation, giving 100 million won to South Korea’s National Cancer Center as a gesture of gratitude for the love he has received from fans.
The donation will be used to assist underprivileged cancer patients undergoing treatment at the center by covering medical expenses, as well as to support psychological therapy programs for pediatric and adolescent cancer patients.
I.N shared that he wanted to pass on the warmth he has received from fans and expressed hope that his contribution could bring even a small sense of comfort to those enduring long periods of treatment. He added that although it may be a modest act, he hopes it can reach patients as a source of hope and courage, while sincerely wishing them a full recovery.
I.N has consistently demonstrated his commitment to giving back. In 2024, he became the youngest-ever member, at age 23, of ChildFund Korea’s Green Noble Club, which recognizes major donors who have contributed at least 100 million won. He also previously donated medical treatment costs for pediatric cancer patients to mark his birthday last year.
