Korea’s most beloved couple continues to warm hearts with consistent generosity and unwavering love.
Celebrity couple Kim Woo-bin and Shin Min-a are once again proving that their love story isn’t just beautiful—it’s deeply meaningful. On March 27, the Korean Red Cross announced that the two actors each donated ₩50 million KRW (approx. $36,000 USD) to aid wildfire recovery efforts across multiple regions in South Korea, including Sancheong, Uiseong, Ulju, Jeonbuk, and Gangwon.

The combined donation of ₩100 million KRW will go toward supporting wildfire victims and firefighters working on the front lines.
“I hope this can bring even a little comfort to those affected by the fires,” Kim said in a statement. “I’m also grateful to the firefighters, volunteers, and all those working behind the scenes.”
Shin Min-a echoed his sentiments, saying, “I hope our contribution offers a bit of support to those going through such a difficult time. I pray for the safety of everyone working in the field.”
But this is far from a one-time gesture. Both actors have a long-standing history of philanthropy. Kim Woo-bin began donating anonymously in 2014 to help underprivileged youth. Since then, he has contributed to causes supporting pediatric cancer patients and disaster relief efforts. From COVID-19 aid to flooding and wildfire support, Kim has stepped up time and again. To date, his cumulative donations have surpassed ₩1.1 billion KRW (approx. $820,000 USD).

Shin Min-a’s track record is just as impressive. Over the past 15 years, she has donated nearly ₩4 billion KRW (approx. $3 million USD) to causes such as burn treatment, children’s education, support for North Korean defectors, heating aid for elderly citizens living alone, and more. Last year alone, she donated ₩300 million to the Hallym Burn Foundation and Asan Medical Center.
Their shared commitment to giving back only adds depth to what has already become one of Korea’s most admired celebrity relationships. The two met during a commercial shoot and confirmed their relationship in 2015. Now in their 10th year of dating, Kim and Shin have remained low-key but steadfast in their support for each other—through Kim’s battle with nasopharyngeal cancer, career breaks, and now through acts of public goodwill.

Kim Woo-bin debuted as a model in 2008 before rising to fame through roles in dramas such as The Heirs, Uncontrollably Fond, Our Blues, and Black Knight, as well as hit films like Friend 2, Twenty, Master, Alienoid, and Officer Black Belt. After taking time off for cancer treatment, he made a highly anticipated return to acting in 2022 with Our Blues.
Shin Min-a, known for her versatile roles in My Girlfriend is a Gumiho, Tomorrow With You, Chief of Staff, and Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha, continues to impress with both her performances and her advocacy.
While the couple has yet to announce any marriage plans, fans continue to admire not just their enduring romance, but their enduring kindness.
In a world filled with fleeting headlines and celebrity drama, Kim Woo-bin and Shin Min-a offer something more meaningful—a steady example of love, resilience, and generosity that transcends fame.
Coming in 2025: Shin Min-a in Karma, Kim Woo-bin in All the Love You Wish For
Fans of the power couple can look forward to seeing them back on their own dramatic journeys—this time through two highly anticipated Netflix original series.
Shin Min-a is set to headline Karma, a 2025 Netflix supernatural mystery-thriller featuring an ensemble cast including Park Hae-soo, Lee Hee-joon, Kim Sung-kyun, Lee Kwang-soo, and Gong Seung-yeon. The drama revolves around a group of individuals entangled in a web of fate, revenge, and long-buried secrets. With its star-studded cast and moody, atmospheric premise, Karma is already generating buzz as one of next year’s most anticipated Korean thrillers.
Meanwhile, Kim Woo-bin will reunite with long-time friend and former Uncontrollably Fond co-star Suzy in All the Love You Wish For (also known as Genie, Make a Wish). This romantic fantasy follows a genie who’s awakened after 1,000 years and forms an unexpected bond with a woman who no longer believes in love. With a unique concept, high-profile leads, and the charm of supernatural romance, the series is expected to be one of Netflix’s biggest K-romance releases of 2025.
Both series will stream exclusively on Netflix, with premiere dates to be announced.
From quiet giving to major comebacks, Kim Woo-bin and Shin Min-a continue to lead with sincerity and purpose—both on and off screen. As they prepare to return to drama fans’ screens in 2025, their real-life love story and shared commitment to doing good make them one of Korea’s most admired and grounded celebrity couples.
