More Korean celebrities are joining the donation spree to support Ukraine as Russia's invasion continues.

Soohyun, Hoon and Kiseop of K-pop act U-Kiss donated 10 million won ($8,200) to the Ukrainian Embassy in Seoul, Thursday, in a bid to help Ukrainian children and refugees who have been hit hard by the ongoing war.

"We want to give a helping hand to people in Ukraine," U-KISS said. "We hope the war comes to an end as soon as possible so that people can have peace again."
