Recently, a video of Park Wi and Song Ji-eun's volunteer activities in Kenya, released last year, has been revisited on online communities and social media. The video is a Vision Trip content created with the international child care organization Compassion, showing the two meeting local children and participating in volunteer work. At the time, Song Ji-eun said on social media, "My husband and I are about to celebrate our first wedding anniversary, and together with Compassion, we set off on a Vision Trip to Kenya," and added, "We promised to become a small church , What kind of vision did we bring back from Kenya?" That's what she reportedly shared. In the released photos, the two met and interacted with local Kenyan children, spending time together, and showing warmth by holding the children and chatting , which earned them much support. However, as controversy surrounding Park Wi has recently continued, perceptions of his volunteer work at the time have changed. In the video , Park Wi was seen moving through bumpy roads and narrow alleys in a wheelchair, and received help. Especially on stairs or sections where movement was difficult, there were scenes where several volunteers lifted or supported the wheelchair together. Netizens responded with comments like, "Who is helping whom?", "Everyone watching me feels uncomfortable," "How many people have they suffered?", "They pushed wheelchairs and lifted them to move them, and it seems like they actually received help," and "Wouldn't it have been better to just help through donations?" Some netizens say that with good intentions , criticizing even the volunteer activities is excessive,,, but it seems it would have been better to just help through donation!!!!!!!!
