The event, co-hosted by China and South Korea, will raise money for the 'International Stars Children Charity Fund'. All the money collected will be used to help children in Sichuan's quake-hit areas.

Li Bingbing donated one of her branded handbags to the charity auction. As South Korea's Cultural Ambassador in China this year, the actress has been involved in various activities to boost bilateral cultural exchanges.

And Hong Kong actor Leon Lai auctioned one of his rings.

Chinese director Zhang Yimou, and South Korean actors Lee Young-Ae and Kwon Sang-woo, also offered their support and called on more people to help.
