Yoo Jae Suk is winning the hearts of the netizens after it was revealed that the Korean host is a regular donor of a charity for the elderly people. Although he tried to keep it a secret, a source attested his good deed just recently.

According to Soompi, a news outlet reported the "Running Man" host has been donating monetary assistance to aid elderly folks abandoned by their families. The report further revealed Yoo Jae Suk has been doing this for the last 10 years without disclosing it to the media.

When asked to confirm the report, Yoo Jae Suk's agency admitted they know little about his charitable acts since the TV host tries to keep them private. "Yoo Jae Suk personally donates to a variety of places," FNC Entertainment.

The label went on, "However, the agency does not know the amount of his donations or how much he is donating at the moment. Yoo Jae Suk seems reluctant to release this kind of information."

This is not the first time the "Running Man" host has shown us his golden heart. Last December, Yoo Jae Suk donated 80,000 coal briquettes to the Babsang Community Welfare Foundation.

The organization even revealed the TV personality has been an active donor since 2013. In the same month, it was reported that Yoo Jae Suk provided assistance to help the victims of Seomun Market fire.

Allkpop cited the "Infinite Challenge" host donated a generous amount of 50,000,000 KRW to help those who have lost their livelihood. Yoo Jae Suk personally decided to keep the act from the media as per an insider.

However, his secret good deeds are slowly coming to light despite efforts to keep them under wraps. As a result, Yoo Jae Suk is being praised for his generosity and sincerity. One netizen said the world needs people like the "Running Man" host, while another fan commended the celebrity for his noble acts.
