“When I look back, I think to myself that I should help someone. I’ve participated in charity events and made donations before, but whenever I do that, rather than it being something rewarding, I think it’s more of my desire to help others sincerely. Mainly old grandmothers and grandfathers as well as kids. There was once, during a broadcast, I visited a welfare home for disabled kids. I think somehow I was really happy then. But on one hand, I wondered to myself, “Am I really helping the child? Am I not gaining satisfaction when the child is suffering in pain?” A moment of generosity could be cruel to someone else. The meaning of making donations is simple. But the concept of volunteering is still difficult for me, and that’s something that I’ll still have to think through.” - IU
