On May 30th, it was revealed that Jimin made a 100 million won donation (approximately $72,500) to the Gyeongnam Provincial Office of Education. The donation, made by Jimin’s father on his behalf, will be used to provide scholarships for underprivileged students through the Gyeongsangnam-do Future Education Foundation.

Over the years, Jimin has made several donations to help fund scholarships for students from low-income families in various provinces, including Busan in 2019 and Jeonnam in 2020.

An official from the Provincial Office of Education explained, β€œSinger Jimin spent his school days in Busan and has no direct connection to Gyeongnam, but we understand that he made this donation with pure intentions for students in the province.”
