[NEWS] Kim Yu-na Donates for Rights of the Disabled!


Olympic figure skating champion Kim Yu-na plans to donate her W40 million fee for appearing in a radio campaign for the rights of the disabled to the Korea Foundation for Persons with Disabilities (US$=1,121).

The Ministry of Health and Welfare said the campaign has been produced to mark Day for the Disabled, which falls on Tuesday, and will air on radio channels until April 30.

In the 40-second radio spot, Kim says that she has cried for joy twice this year--when she won the gold medal at the Vancouver Olympics and when the Korean wheelchair curling team won the silver medal at the Vancouver Winter Paralympics.
