G-Dragon further elaborated,' it is completely unexpected. I am really impressed by what the fans have done. I am already thankful for the support they give us everytime, they even own a good heart for they have witnessed how many difficulties others are going through. Therefore, I would also like to donate 50 million wons for Seoul National University Children's Hospital. This birthday is very likely the most memorable one that I have ever had. '
In fact, G-Dragon has already taken part in YGE's 'WITH' campaign and has been donating annually. The campaign started in 2009. It is an official campaign which YGE donates part of the revenues received from the artists's perfermances and selling of merchadises.
G-Dragon said, ' in the meantime, we are very busy with doing our music and it is difficult for us to have a lot of contact with the fans so I want to take this chance to do more positive things to the society.'
