Park Kyung-rim is loved by all around in South Korea for her enthusiastic personality and outstanding MC ability. Because she is loved by the people in her career, she decided to share that love and spread hope for people in need.

Park Kyung-rim has been the ambassador of an international relief development organization called "Save the Children" for the last 12 years. On December 2017, "Save the Children" held a bazaar with Park Kyung-rim as the host and donated the total earnings of 45 million KRW (about USD $41,850) for the renovation of a national child protection agency in Incheon. The bazaar began under Park Kyung-rim's lead when she heard about abused children going through therapy and treatment in a building with high risk of short circuits and leaks.

She also donated KRW 10 million KRW (about USD $9,300) out of her pocket to the children who were affected by the earthquake in Pohang. Her outreach towards the children will be of great help as the fund will be used to support the children's urgent medical, food, education, and housing needs.

Regarding her good work, she simply said, "Since I received so much love from society, it is my duty to give back to those who have supported me".
