BTS RM‘s donation to a school for his birthday in 2019 inspired a student to be a K-Pop idol in the first-ever Deaf boy group.
Recently, a group that has gained attention is Big O!cean.
Under PARASTAR Entertainment, Big O!cean want to introduce netizens to S-Pop, or Sign Language Pop. The members use sign language to sing — Korean Sign Language (KSL), American Sign Language (ASL), and International Sign Language (ISL). It makes their music accessible to everyone.
In a recent interview with the group, the members spoke about their path into K-Pop, and member Jiseok revealed the impact RM had on his desire to be an idol.
When the interviewer asked the members if there were any idols they wanted to collaborate with, Jiseok said RM.
The idol explained that RM donated to his school’s music education.
Jiseok revealed that it was because of this that he discovered dancing, watched cover songs, and became more interested in music.
In 2019, RM reportedly donated a large sum of money to the school, and it was shared that he donated a total of ₩100 million KRW (about $72,500 USD). It shows that everything the BTS members do has an impact.
