One particular story from the visit touched everyone present. An elderly recipient, who had never held such a large sum of money, expressed their joy by saying, “I've always wanted to eat ribs. The first thing I'll do is buy some ribs,” while smiling brightly.

Kian84, visibly moved, wished the elderly recipient good health.

Netizens have flooded social media with supportive messages, praising Kian84's warm-hearted actions and his attention to the elderly.
