[Financial News] Singer Lim Young-woong has topped the weekly idol ranking site 'Fan & Star' solo ranking for 133 consecutive weeks, entering the Hall of Fame.

Meanwhile, Lim Young-woong, who is ranked first in the 'Fan & Star' solo ranking, and the largest domestic fan club 'Hero Era' are known for actively practicing donations and volunteering.
In fact, 'Hero Era' recently donated 156,756,000 won (140,056,000 won in cash, 16,700,000 won in goods) to neighbors in need in celebration of Lim Young-woong's 34th birthday (Woongtan Day, June 16). Over the past five years, 'Hero Era' has added meaning to birthdays by donating a total of 1,168,340,000 won or directly volunteering during Lim Young-woong's birthday.
Recently, Lim Young-woong also donated 200 million won in the name of the fan club 'Hero Era' to help residents and communities affected by heavy rain. Truly, the singer and the fans were alike.
'Hero Era' has an internal guideline to participate in sharing, as Lim Young-woong, known as a 'donation angel', emphasizes donations and volunteering with difficult neighbors rather than birthday gifts from fans. It is known that Lim Young-woong has not been receiving any gifts from fans since 2021, only accepting handwritten letters, and emphasizes practicing sharing with fans.
