The singer-actor already gave 30 million won in January of 2013 and the same amount in August of 2014 to the center for the victims.

Beyond the charity center for sex slaves, the 36-year-old has donated a total of 280 million won to people in need, starting from 2003.

Kim recently finished his solo concert tour, which kicked off on Nov. 26 and ran until Dec. 13. Around 4,000 fans attended the 10 concerts held in that time.
