Enhypen donates P4 million for flood relief in PH after typhoons
South Korean boy band Enhypen has donated 100 million Korean won (P4 million) to support relief efforts for Filipinos devastated by the recent flooding.
Belift Lab, a subsidiary of HYBE Labels, told The Korea Times that the donation will primarily be used to help various communities in Bulacan, one of the areas that were impacted most by the typhoon season.
“We became aware of the recent severe flooding affecting many communities across the Philippines, a country that has long been close to our hearts, Enhypen said through a press release.
“We wanted to offer our support, even in a small way, and sincerely hope the contributions will be used to help those in need and assist in the ongoing recovery efforts. Our hearts are with the local community and fans during this challenging time,” they added.
Belift Lab noted how Bulacan “holds a special place in the group’s history.” To recall, the K-pop group—composed of Jungwon, Heeseung, Jay, Jake, Sunghoon, Sunoo and Ni-ki—held their “WALK THE LINE” world tour at the Philippine Sports Stadium in the province.
“The Philippines is where ENHYPEN held their first stadium concert in Southeast Asia, and it remains a place of deep significance to both the group and our team. We hope our donation will provide meaningful help to those affected by the recent floods,” the agency said.
The Philippine Disaster Resilience Foundation, which will help facilitate the donation in partnership with the Hope Bridge Korea Disaster Relief Association, expressed its appreciation for Enhypen’s support and solidarity with Filipino communities during this difficult time.
“We extend our heartfelt gratitude to ENHYPEN and BELIFT LAB for choosing PDRF as your partner in helping communities recover from recent disasters. Thank you for standing with us and for using your voice and influence to uplift those who need it most,” they said on social media.
The Philippines was recently hit by two consecutive Typhoons, Tino and Uwan, which triggered widespread flooding and left thousands of families in urgent need of assistance after their homes were destroyed.
