The fan club 'Raon' of singer Lim Young-woong's fanbase, Hero Era, has once again visited Yangpyeong Rodem House this winter, bringing their warmth and dedication.

This volunteering event was more than just a kimchi-making day; it became a significant record of dedication, involving the preparation of 3,000 heads of cabbage and building upon 54 months of continuous service.

On November 15th, Raon members conducted their 53rd meal service at Yangpyeong Rodem House. This occasion also included their major annual event, winter kimchi preparation, along with a donation worth 2.32 million KRW. Rodem House is a facility for children with severe disabilities, and Raon consistently supports it by donating 1.5 million KRW monthly for meal expenses and various supplies, while also directly participating in cooking and serving meals.

This year's kimchi-making effort involved an impressive 3,000 cabbages. A representative from Raon stated, "Although we were surprised by the increased volume compared to last year, we worked joyfully with the pride of preparing a year's worth of food for the angels at Rodem House."

Considering the challenges in regular cooking due to kimchi preparation, the lunch service that day featured a special menu including chicken, pizza, rice cakes, and fruits. Furthermore, donations for fermented seafood purchases, 10kg of Hanwoo beef brisket, and 10kg of Hanwoo beef bones were made, bringing the total donation to 2.32 million KRW.

Raon shared that the warm, sunny weather on the day of the event, coupled with the volunteers' passion and Lim Young-woong's songs serving as energetic work songs, helped them smoothly complete the massive kimchi-making task.

Lee Jung-soon, the director of Rodem House, expressed her gratitude, saying, "We are so thankful for the monthly meal services and for taking on the large kimchi-making task every year. Thanks to you, we can spend the winter without worries and are truly happy."

Raon stated, "As fans of singer Lim Young-woong, we consistently strive to be a source of warmth for the underserved neighbors." Their name 'Raon,' meaning joy and pleasure, reflects this positive direction of their fandom.

Their benevolent actions are not limited to Rodem House. Over the past 54 months, Raon has continuously engaged in volunteer activities in various places, including slum areas, box villages, child welfare associations, supporting the self-reliance of underprivileged youth, and aiding patients in children's hospitals. Their support has also extended to contributing to the reconstruction costs of Rodem House. To date, Raon's total donations have reached 187.49 million KRW, demonstrating how fan support for an artist on stage translates into tangible help for neighbors during the winter.

Netizens are reacting enthusiastically, with comments like 'Lim Young-woong's fandom are truly angels,' 'Their consistent good deeds warm the heart,' and 'Lim Young-woong must be proud of his fans.'
