So, he decided to donate it to Hyochon Elementary School in hopes to improve the overall conditions of the school."

The agency continued, "We don't know the exact amount of money that Yim Siwan donated, but as far as we know, he donated some of his own money on top of his military salary."Shortly after, it was also revealed that Yim Siwan had volunteered to teach math at the school and lead some fun activities for the students as well.
