1:13Now PlayingThis shoeshiner has donated his hard-earned land to help people struggling amid the coronavirus outbreak.
“I am addicted to helping others like a 'donation angel,’” says Byung-rok Kim, a 60-year-old shoeshiner in South Korea.
“I went through a rough childhood and I got help from others all the time. I grew up thinking I should one day help others.”
South Korea asked its people to refrain from joining any group activities related to religion, sports and entertainment for the next two weeks as health officials warned of a rising fatality rate from the coronavirus after a lull in new cases.
Korea’s CDC separately warned that the COVID-19 will “quickly and quietly” spread into “every corner” of the community going forward.
