=== Philanthropy === In January 2010, He went to Indonesia to do volunteer work at the recommendation of those around him. Kim was shocked by the lack of basic necessities he encountered during a relief trip with an MBC camera crew. He felt the camera's presence undermined his sincerity, and the PD advised him to use his popularity to draw more participation in the efforts. This experience led Kim to believe relief work should be more systematic, as short-term visits could leave people feeling empty or alone again. Kim discussed plans for "future work" that would not just provide immediate aid, but more importantly, instill in the people a belief that "they are not alone" - a fundamental approach he felt was more helpful than temporary relief.<ref name=":0">{{Cite web |last=김 |first=경민 |date=2016-08-16 |script-title=ko:배우 김남길, NGO 대표로 또다른 길 위에 서다 |url=https://www.sisajournal.com/news/articleView.html?idxno=156679 |access-date=2024-07-02 |website=Sisa Journal |language=ko |archive-date=July 2, 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240702011820/https://www.sisajournal.com/news/articleView.html?idxno=156679 |url-status=live }}</ref>
