Concept stars made meaningful moves to mark the 79th anniversary of Liberation Day on the 15th.
Song Hye-kyo, who has been taking the lead in promoting the independence movement and Korean history with Sungshin Women's University professor Seo Kyung-duk since 2012, donated 10,000 copies of the guidebook to Lee Tae-joon Memorial Hall in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia. This guide introduces Lee Tae-joon's life and achievements and was produced in Korean and Mongolian.
Actor Lee Young-ae donated 100 million won to the Japanese Foundation for Victims of Compulsory Mobilization. According to the foundation on the 14th, Lee Young-ae delivered the donation, saying, `It is our responsibility to take care of those affected by the forced mobilization of the Japanese colonial era when even one more person is alive.' Lee Young-ae's father is a Korean War veteran.
Ham Eun-jung from T-ara joined forces with Professor Seo Kyung-duk to produce a multilingual video introducing Lee Yuk-sa, an independence activist and poet. Ham Eun-jung, who was so interested in history that she held a second-class Korean history certificate, said, `I am happy to introduce the life of Yi Yuk-sa with my voice.'
Jeon Hyo-sung, a former member of the group Secret, said "The day the 79th anniversary was restored. The Republic of Korea, which has kept hope in the face of all kinds of hardships and adversities. I will never forget that valuable sacrifice and always live with gratitude, and broadcaster Jang Sung-gyu said, `I will not forget the noble sacrifice spirit of patriotic martyrs who gave their noble lives for the independence of the Republic of Korea," he wrote. Lee Ki-woo commemorates the liberation of Korea from Japan on August 15, 1945 and celebrates the establishment of the Korean government on August 15, 1948. I'm just proud and grateful. Long live the Republic of Korea," he said, posting a video containing photos and names of independence activists. Winner Kang Seung-yoon and singer Song Ga-in also uploaded a picture of the Taegeukgi.
Jinusean ran a marathon in the heat wave. The marathon was attended by Lim Si-wan, Yoon Se-ah, Jin Sun-kyu and Lim Semi, former soccer players Lee Young-pyo, and Cho Won-hee.
'815 Run' is a marathon in which Sean runs 81.5 km every year since 2020 to honor the dedication and sacrifice of independence fighters. Last year, 8150 runners participated and raised a fund of 4.5 billion won over four years. With this fund, Sean created his 14th home for the descendants of independence fighters. Impressed by these good deeds, a total of 16,300 runners will run the largest marathon ever this year.
Especially before the marathon, Sean said "It's going to be great, Korea! D-1. My left thumb toenail is falling out and my right thumb toenail is getting ready to fall out. One toenail that was missing grew and the other two changed color to lose. You have a hard time living with your claws after knowing if they are celebrity claws. I'm going to do my best to write an 81.5km thank you letter tomorrow on Liberation Day with half my healthy claws. Someone also drew attention by releasing a picture of their toenails, saying, "It's something to do."
