The popular idol group leading the KPOP fever, BEAST, had given the gift of a pure smile to a 13 year old girl fighting cancer named, Seohyun (fake name). Seohyun, who had been suffering from chemotherapy had fought through the struggles and found hope in her life through BEAST's gift.

Posts titled 'story of inspiration' started to appear on BEAST's official cafe during the month of June. One person who had introduced him/herself as a evangelist posted on the official cafe with a post titled, "Please save 13 year old Seohyun who is currently fighting cancer." At that time, Seohyun was receiving her 3rd chemotherapy session at the National Cancer Center. The person who had started the post wrote, "The beautiful Seohyunie now doesn't even look at the mirror because she doesn't have any hair and she doesn't even take off her hat in her bed. Her lips are so dried up that it is difficult for her to talk and she lost a lot of weight since she doesn't eat much. I'm in sadness whenever she asked me why she has to endure all this pain. If anything can encourage her, it would be BEAST. She wants BEAST's signatures."

Fans who saw this post started to share it so that the members could see it. Then, BEAST has genuinely sent a gift to Seohyun right afterwards. Signed CD was for sure, but they had even added a photo book and personally written letters. It was a small thing, but it was such a big gift for Seohyun. Seohyun wrote a message to her friends saying, "It's actually the BEAST oppas. Doojoon and Yoseob oppa wrote me letters and the other oppas signed for me. I'm really happy." In addition, the person who had posted said through a phone call with Sports World, "Seohyun was having a really hard time with chemotherapy especially since she hit her rebellious time. But, she was the happiest when she received the gift from BEAST and afterwards she started to think positively. Thanks to BEAST she finished her chemotherapy treatments at the center and will be returning home to finish up her treatments."

To this good deed, BEAST's management Cube Entertainment commented carefully, "We just did what we were supposed to do and it's really overwhelming to find out the world knows of it now." They also added, "Not only this, but I know that the fans are also doing good deeds. BEAST members are touched by the fans and they are trying their best no matter what they do."

BEAST members Yoon Doojoon and Yang Yoseob who wrote letters to Seohyun commented. "We are just thankful that Seohyun liked BEAST even during her difficult times. We hope that we can meet each other once she becomes healthy quickly."
