Celebrated actress Kim Jung-eun and the Social Welfare Society on Monday held a charity bazaar to promote domestic adoption at the organization’s back garden in southern Seoul.
The actress, currently the face of Ttasamo, an entertainers’ charity group, promoted the sales kiosk of baby goods company 0to7. The kiosk sold 250 million won ($220,000) worth of items on the day. The proceeds will go to feed and provide comfortable living environments for infants waiting to be adopted.
Ga Hee, former leader of girl group After School, as well as singer Hong Kyung-min and actress So You-jin also attended the event as members of Ttasamo.
Kim, who shot to international stardom after taking the lead role in “Lovers in Paris” in 2005, is currently contemplating several future projects.
