Amid severe flooding in southern Thailand, SM Entertainment's joint venture SM True and the K-pop group Super Junior have stepped up to offer assistance. On November 28, SM True announced via their official social media that they have donated 3 million baht to the Thai Red Cross, with Super Junior contributing an additional 1 million baht. In total, this equates to around 180 million won.
Super Junior is set to hold their 20th-anniversary world tour concert, 'SUPER SHOW 10', on November 29-30 at Impact Arena in Bangkok. They aim to provide comfort to their local fans through music.
SM True and Super Junior expressed, "We extend our deepest condolences to all those suffering due to this disaster and sincerely thank all the officials and volunteers working diligently on recovery efforts in the affected areas."
The recent floods in Thailand have severely affected many lives, and Super Junior's donation highlights their commitment to social responsibility beyond just entertainment. This act illustrates their deep respect for their fan community, as they strive to make a positive impact in various ways, not only through music.
This charitable contribution is likely to strengthen the solidarity of Super Junior's global fandom. They are not merely a group active in South Korea but have expanded their reach to fans across Asia and the world. Such initiatives deepen the bond between the artists and their fans, fostering a sense of unity.
As Super Junior celebrates its 20th anniversary, they are not only aiming for global revenue growth but also drawing attention to social issues. The upcoming 'SUPER SHOW 10' is set to mark another milestone in their musical journey, demonstrating how K-pop stars can fulfill their social responsibilities effectively.
