Lim Siwan participates in the Green Ribbon Hope Festival... ”I wanted to participate because it's a good cause... I run with a happy feeling”

"I had heard about the great purpose of the Green Ribbon Hope Festival last year and wanted to participate, but unfortunately my schedule didn't allow me to join.
I am grateful that they invited me again and I am looking forward to running again."
Actor Lim Siwan attended the Sangam Peace Park in Mapo-gu, Seoul on the 28th.
When asked about her thoughts on taking on the marathon at the 18th Green Ribbon Hope Festival held at Peace Square, she said the following.
Lim Siwan is a representative celebrity who is well-known as a running enthusiast.
In the movie "Boston 1947" released last year, he played the role of marathon runner Seo Yun-bok, and actually tried his hand at running a marathon.
Lim Siwan, who played the role of an athlete in the TV series "Run On," became interested in running through the series and has been steadily running as a hobby ever since.

While CEO Do was the star of the show, Lim Siwan was unable to join due to schedule conflicts at the time.
Lim took over the baton from the 1947 team and participated in the festival.
Regarding the purpose of the event, which had the slogan "A world where children are happy," Siwan said, "Children are our future, so I'm interested in them and I want to learn more and help them.
"It's natural to think that it's a good idea to do something about it," he said. In fact, Lim Siwan will continue to donate to low-income children who have finished receiving welfare support and to children from low-income families who are in welfare blind spots in 2021 as well.
Regarding the appeal of running, Lim Siwan said, "Running is a sport that is relatively easy to start right now," and "On the other hand, the exercise effects are quite good.
I know that it is popular, but it seems that more and more people are discovering its appeal." He continued, "I belong to a running crew, and I usually run as a hobby when I have free time.
"I'm not very good at running, but I'm steadily enjoying it as a hobby. I hope I can complete the race safely without any injuries. Go for it!" he added.
Finally, he said, "I hope everyone can enjoy their hobbies safely and in good health." He also said, "I'm currently working hard on the film 'Praying Mantis' and will be releasing it soon."
I hope you will look forward to the upcoming Netflix series "Squid Game" season 2." Im Siwan recently starred in the spinoff film "Gil Boksoon" for the Netflix film.
He has confirmed his appearance in "Mantis" and is currently filming, and will meet audiences around the world in December with the Netflix original series "Squid Game Season 2."
Meanwhile, despite attending the event after a busy filming schedule, Lim Siwan actually had a 10-minute break after his on-stage greeting.
She challenged herself to complete the 1,000km marathon, showing her passion for running. The Green Ribbon Hope Festival is held as part of a campaign to create a happy world for children.
The event began in 2007 as the Green Ribbon Walking Tournament, and this year marks its 18th anniversary.
