The K-pop group IVE has extended support to victims affected by the recent fire disaster in Hong Kong, joining the collective efforts to aid the recovery.

On November 28, IVE shared a heartfelt message via their official Weibo account, stating, “We are deeply saddened and painful to hear about the tragic large-scale fire incident in Hong Kong that has caused immense damage to so many people.”

The group added, “At this difficult time, we carefully offer our condolences and have donated 500,000 Hong Kong dollars to the Hong Kong Red Cross to support emergency rescue and disaster recovery efforts.”

The IVE members further expressed, “Though our contribution may be small, we sincerely hope it can bring comfort to those affected. We send our deepest condolences to the victims and bereaved families, wishing for peace for everyone.”

The donation from IVE will be used to support local relief operations and restoration of damage caused by the incident.

The large-scale fire broke out on November 26 at a high-rise apartment complex in the Tai Po area of Hong Kong, resulting in hundreds of casualties. In response, figures from the Korean entertainment industry have also contributed donations and support in different forms.

Meanwhile, IVE is scheduled to attend the ‘2025 MAMA AWARDS’ taking place at Hong Kong’s Kai Tak Stadium over the course of two days starting today.
