Through his agency JYP Entertainment, Lee Joon-ho joined the sharing campaign, hoping to repay the love he received for Christmas and for children in need of treatment to have a warm end of the year. I hope that more children will grow up healthy and dream in the coming New Year. In the future, I would like to continue to add interest and love to places in need of help," he said.
