On July 10, Yongin Special City announced that it held a ceremony at the mayor's office for the handover of 'Yeolmae Network' project funds from the Gyeonggi Community Chest of Korea.

The 70 million won in project funding received on this day will be used through the Community Social Security Council to support cooling costs for the underprivileged, provide holiday supplies, and promote sharing culture initiatives within the community.

Notably, the event also included a special donation from 'Yongin Hero Era Dongbaekbang,' a fan club for singer Lim Youngwoong. To mark the 10th anniversary of Lim Youngwoong's debut, the members voluntarily raised and donated 5 million won to Yongin City.

A representative from 'Yongin Hero Era Dongbaekbang' stated, "It is very meaningful and joyful to make a donation under the name of the Hero Era fan club for the first time in Yongin," adding, "We hope that the funds, collected with the heartfelt intentions of our members, will provide at least some help to neighbors in need."
