Rasheed Ogunlar once said, “It may take many voices for people to hear the same message.” ENHYPEN’s Kim Sunoo is not just voicing out hope through his music as a member of a globally loved 7 member Korean idol group, but he also shows it through supporting various campaigns. He is known as a ray of sunshine in the group that spreads good energy with a warm personality. Being a K-Pop idol requires the right usage of the influence you have on your fans, and Sunoo surely knows how to utilize it through his good deeds. He proves that he is beyond the beautiful visuals and artist that he is.
From Weverse Magazine 2023, Sunoo says:
“I always want to be the best. If something’s not working out, I have to try harder. And it’s always good to aim high with your goals. (laughs) I want to receive recognition all around the world, and then I want to use that to be a good influence.”
But what makes Sunoo someone who radiates noble influence? Let’s find out today through the things listed below.
Chance Bracelet
The bracelet worn by Sunoo is called a Chance Bracelet which can only be received by donors who regularly provide sponsorship to the Green Umbrella Children’s Foundation campaign. The campaign is for Korean children from low-income families giving them a “chance to change” for a brighter and better future.
Mark Gonzales’ Mask Strap
Sunoo’s mask strap is a gift freely given to customers of MUSINSA who ordered some products. The campaign is called Angel’s Share which is done by Mark Gonzales who supports the “Animal Rights Action Cara” activity for suffering animals in society.
MUSINSA LENGAGEMENT Shirt
Sunoo’s shirt is from MUSINSA, specifically labeled as: LENGAGEMENT Eco Button Oversized Vintage Denim Shirt in Indigo Blue Color. The product promotes “NO TO PLASTIC” throughout the process from production to delivery, and sustainability to reduce plastic waste. The packaging is 100% recyclable and the buttons of the shirt are made from the fruit of Tagua palm trees that grow in the tropics.
A Donation Under Sunoo’s Name To World Wildlife Fund Korea
1M KRW was donated under Sunoo’s name to World Wildlife Fund Korea, an independent conservation organization, as his prize from the ENHYPEN Comeback Show Golden Bell Challenge.
Fan-Created Charity Events Written Under Sunoo’s Name
Sunoo’s good deeds and acts of kindness have inspired his fans, ENGENES (the group’s official fandom name) and Baragis (the collective name of Sunoo stans) to emit the same radiance through philanthropic acts.
Down below are some of the many charity events held under his name.
Sunoo’s representative animal is a fox, so fans have adopted foxes celebrating his birthday every 24th of June.
As a piece of information from National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) says “The Moon does not shine with its own light. It simply reflects light coming from the Sun.” ENHYPEN’s SUNoo is the sunshine and his light of influence just reflects to his own fans by bringing a glimmering glow of kindness to his surroundings through music, positive words, and good deeds.
He’s such an inspiring figure. I am I stan a good person. The embodiment of sunshine. Hope you will get the best everytime, you deserve more than you have today.
I love this article. It shows how caring Sunoo is and how he inspires his fans to do good works.
This article really touched me not only seeing sunoo but seeing the efforts his fans made to bring happiness and goodness around the world, I hope sunoo and baragis always keep smiling.
