These kind of donations are not done for publicity, but it still makes me happy to hear about the contributions. It makes me think - even if not disclosed by the donors themselves, we can't assume that the person doesn't care about a cause.

In other news, Soobin revealed his true feelings regarding TXT's title track 'Chasing That Feeling."
On October 23, 2023, the leader sat down with Weverse magazine for an interview, where he expressed that he had mixed reactions to the song, since the track was "basic." However, as time went on, Soobin eventually grew to love the title track after listening to it a couple of times.
"I thought 'Chasing That Feeling' was basic, but after listening to it four or five times, I realized how catchy it was. Then it felt like something you can't skip out, something you can keep on listening to on repeat."
