Choi Kang-hee donated 500 million won, yet lives at a friend's house
Actress Choi Kang-hee revealed her current life staying at a friend's house and receiving "hotel-level room service" from her friend's mother, contrasting her humble lifestyle with her history of significant charitable donations.
Despite donating nearly 500 million won, her actual lifestyle is surprisingly modest. As actress Choi Kang-hee revealed her current status of still living at a friend's house, it has once again become a hot topic that she even receives "hotel-level room service" from her friend's mother every morning.
In the MBC "Omniscient Interfering View" broadcast on the 3rd, Choi Kang-hee's daily life was revealed. On this day, the place where Choi Kang-hee started her day was not her own home, but her friend's house. Since her staying at a friend's house was already revealed in a broadcast last May, it was thought to be a temporary stay, but she was continuing the same lifestyle even after several months had passed.
When Yang Se-hyung asked, "Wasn't it just a temporary stay?" Choi Kang-hee nonchalantly replied, "It's until December." The cast burst into laughter at the "living at a friend's house" situation, which had lasted longer than expected. But it didn't end there. A story that would surprise everyone was revealed upon seeing Choi Kang-hee's breakfast.
Inside the cooler bag in front of the entrance was a properly prepared home-cooked meal including boiled pork, green onion kimchi, and beef radish soup. Choi Kang-hee explained, "My friend's mother lives nearby," and "She always brings me food in the morning like room service." Not only is she staying at her friend's house, but she also receives warm home-cooked meals every morning, making it a life that is literally like a "precious guest."
What is more interesting is the way of life Choi Kang-hee has usually shown. Keeping her distance from the glamorous entertainment industry and continuing a modest daily life, she also drew attention when it was belatedly revealed that she had donated approximately 500 million won in the past. At that time, it was reported that she had continued her good deeds quietly, to the extent that even her agency did not know the specific details of the donation.
She didn't just donate. She donated the proceeds from her essay, participated in a charity bazaar for single mothers, and even donated bone marrow for leukemia patients. In July this year, she also participated in a 6km charity run to support clean water for children in Africa. It is known that she even practiced running while carrying water containers to understand the situation where children actually walk to get water.
From performing good deeds like giving hundreds of millions of won to donating bone marrow and participating in charity runs, Choi Kang-hee moves unsparingly for others, yet her actual life involves staying at a friend's house and eating home-cooked meals provided by her friend's mother. This unexpected daily life of hers, which is far from glamour, is instead leaving a deep impression on many people. Her humility, valuing a breakfast at a friend's house more than the title of a "500 million won donation star," might be the true charm of the person that is Choi Kang-hee.
