And just like that, it’s real. BTS’ Suga has turned generosity into something you can walk into, touch, and feel. On September 30, 2025, Severance Hospital officially opened the Min Yoon Gi Treatment Center in Seoul. A whole center dedicated to children and teens with autism, made possible because Min Yoongi quietly handed over 5 billion won—3.7 million dollars—last year.
The doors are open now. On the first floor of the Jejungwon Building, there are rooms for speech therapy, behavioral support, and group interaction. There’s a waiting space for parents decorated with artwork by autistic artist Lee Gyu Jae. And of course, there’s music. Real soundproof studios, instruments, and spaces designed so children can use music as their language, their rhythm, their connection.
This isn’t a random project. Yoongi helped build it with his own hands, ideas, and time. Back in November, he personally met with Professor Chun Geun Ah, a child psychiatrist, and offered to play guitar for therapy sessions. And it worked. Kids who barely responded to speech therapy started engaging through music. Out of that moment came the MIND program—Music, Interaction, Network, Diversity—designed to use music as a bridge for children with limited verbal communication.
Now the program is alive. Doctors, therapists, and psychologists are working together under one roof. Later this year, kids will even go to a two-day camp, and by December, they’ll step onto a stage at Yonsei University Grand Auditorium to perform the music they’ve created in therapy. Yes, Yoongi made a space where healing doesn’t stop in the clinic—it moves into the world.
And this is it. Not a dream, not a plan. The Min Yoon Gi Treatment Center is open. It stands as proof that his legacy is carved not just in music history but in the lives of children who now have a place built just for them. Suga gave us songs that healed hearts. Now he’s built a home that heals lives.
