Singer Lim Young-woong’s conditions for fans are becoming a hot topic online.
Recently, an article posted by a netizen on a social network service (SNS) regarding Lim Young-woong’s advertisement for CheongKwanJang spread widely in online communities.
Writer A, who said he was a fan of Lim Young-woong, posted a post saying, “I heard a story that brought tears to my eyes.”
Mr. A said, “If the Cheongkwanjang shop owner sets a price limit like ‘From our point of view, it’s over 100,000 won’ and distributes goods, it will help sales. However, the head office told us to give goods to everyone regardless of the price,” he wrote.
He said, “Lim Young-woong is said to have set such a condition when signing the contract. “I’m afraid fans might feel uncomfortable,” he said “He’s such a great person.” “I was in tears and reprimanded,” he said.
Mr A authenticated the purchased product by uploading a photo of bromide and a photo card containing a handwritten message from Lim Young-woong.
Netizens who came across the post commented, “He really has a kind heart,” “How could he be so deep,” and “I was wandering in front of the store, but I gathered the courage to go inside , and I was touching when I heard that the price didn’t matter. So I bought one and received the goods,” and “There are just waves and waves of good stories,” and other compliments poured in.
On the 18th, KGC Ginseng Corporation announced that Lim Young-woong was chosen as the new model for CheongKwanJang. A company official said the reason for the choice was, “We judged that Lim Young-woong’s rigorous self-control and his sincere attitude towards fans matched the value of the trust built by Jeong Kwan-jang.”
