(Xports News reporter Jang Juwon) Lee Young-ji and Ningning showed positive influence by promising to donate 20 million won while filming 'Nothing Prepared, But...'.

On the 1st, the YouTube channel 'Nothing Prepared, But...' (hereinafter 'Cha Jjippul') released the video '[SUB] The Devil of a Woman from the Mainland [Nothing Prepared, But] EP.36'.

That day, Lee Young-ji invited aespa's Ningning as the first guest for Season 4 of 'Cha Jjippul'. While drinking and chatting, the two started a word chain game as a drinking game.

Before the second game began after the first word chain game ended, Lee Young-ji said, "Ning-ah, do you like donating? I like donating," and suggested, "Let's have the loser donate generously."

Ningning declared that she would donate 20 million won, and Lee Young-ji accepted it and started the game.

The result was Lee Young-ji's defeat because she could not continue the next word from 'Horse Zodiac'. One beat late in realizing her loss, Lee Young-ji laughed in embarrassment, saying, "Then am I donating 20 million won?"

Two weeks after the filming date, Lee Young-ji stood in front of the camera holding the certificate and said, "Because you have to keep your word in life, I made the donation," adding, "Since the filming location was my grandmother's hometown, I donated 20 million won to a senior welfare institution in Yangcheon-gu."

She added, "There may be people who misunderstand, but I'm not someone who burns through 20 million won at one drinking session. I did it because it was a good cause. For me, it was like earning 50,000 won and donating 40,000 won."

Following the news of Lee Young-ji's donation, a certificate was also revealed at the end of the video showing that Ningning, the winner of the word chain game, had donated 20 million won to the Korean Red Cross. It was also revealed that Ningning had voluntarily joined the donation, adding warmth.

Netizens reacted to the two women's generous donations by saying things like, "Such fierce women. Not 1 million or 10 million, but just donating 20 million won outright," and "Donating together? Their loyalty is insane."
