Super Junior's Heechul and IU donated to victims of the recent Gangwon Province wildfire.

On April 5, reports revealed Heechul donated 30 million Won ($26,360.42 USD) to help those affected by the wildfire through the organization 'Fruits of Love', and IU donated 100 million Won ($87,870.50 USD) through the 'Green Umbrella Children's Foundation'.

As Gangwon is Heechul's hometown province, he expressed, "I was very hurt seeing the wildfires spread around the Kangwon Province. I hope this becomes a bit of help to the locals." The 'Green Umbrella Children's Foundation' also stated, "IU has consistently donated to the children of low-income families and students, and after hearing the news of the fire, she donated 100 million Won. IU's donation of 100 million Won will go towards the children of low-income families, children living with elderly grandparents, and children with single parents who were affected by the fires."

Though the Gangwon Province wildfire has been put out, there was a large amount of property lost. One man in his 50s lost his life, while one other person suffered an injury.

Earlier today, we reported that IU covered the Wonder Girls' "I Feel You", she also performed several other songs including a fabulous cover of Big Bang's "If You".

On Saturday, IU took the stage at the '2015 Melody Forest Camp' where in addition to singing several of her own songs, she performed an impressive "If You" cover.

As we all know, IU is a Big Bang fan, in particular Taeyang so it should come as no surprise that she would cover something from their recent catalog of hits.

Big Bang song's are notoriously difficult to cover, however IU successfully pulls off the song with her trademark husky vocals and sweet charm. Watch IU's cover above.

You can watch her performances of "Letter" and "Your Meaning" as well below.
