On September 12th, 2025, RM of BTS chose to celebrate his birthday in a way that touched hearts far beyond his own! Instead of focusing only on parties and cake, he donated 100 million KRW (around $72,000) each to Asan Medical Center and Korea University Medical Center. His total gift of $144,000 will help cover surgery costs for patients struggling financially and also support upgrades in medical facilities.
