Suga donates P207M for autism center in South Korea
South Korean rapper Suga of BTS has donated approximately P207 million for the construction of an autism treatment center in South Korea following his mandatory military training.
The Yonsei Severance Hospital in Seoul confirmed the donation, which will fund a facility named after Suga's real name, Min Yoon-gi, on Monday, June 23.
The Min Yoon-gi Treatment Center aims to provide language, psychological, and behavioral therapies for children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorder.
A groundbreaking ceremony was held today to mark the start of the construction of this new treatment center.
Suga met with Chun Geun-ah, head of the Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry at Yonsei Severance Hospital, in November 2024 to discuss holistic methods for helping those suffering from autism.
The hospital plans to develop a Music Interaction Network Diversity (MIND) program under Suga's support, which aims to help patients grow into independent individuals and improve awareness about autism spectrum disorder.
