Korean actor, singer and philanthropist Jang Geun Suk has finally completed his college education.

The 26-year-old actor, who starred in such Korean dramas as “You’re Beautiful” and “Beautiful Man,” graduated from Hanyang University in Seoul with a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Theater and Cinema.

He took to Twitter to post photos of himself wearing a toga at the graduation ceremony.

The actor entered the university in 2006.

During the ceremony, Hanyang University bestowed a special award to Jang Geun Suk for his contributions to the school.

The hallyu star, known for his generosity and his philanthropic works, donated a total of 1.2 billion won (about P50 million) as scholarship fund to the university in the last eight years.

Jang Geun Suk also donated 100 million won (about P4.12 million) for the victims of Typhoon “Yolanda” in the Philippines last December, via the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF), as a gesture of support for Filipino fans.

Jang Geun Suk held a fan meeting dubbed “Propose” in Seoul recently, which was attended by over 3,000 people.
