Hey there, have you heard about the latest scoop involving Hinatazaka46? It’s got everyone talking, trust me!
So, here’s the lowdown: Kosaka Nao, one of the members, spilled the beans about their salaries during a livestream, and let’s just say it caused quite the stir!
You won’t believe it, but the moment when the livestream was abruptly cut?
Yeah, it was because the members were in the midst of discussing their salaries.
Talk about a bombshell, right? Everyone’s been buzzing about it ever since, wondering just how much these idols rake in.
So, here’s the deal straight from the source: Kosaka Nao spilled some details about their pay structure.
Apparently, their salary is divided by a fixed amount, resulting in their monthly earnings. But wait, there’s more! They also get bonuses on top of that.
Now, these ‘bonuses’ aren’t handed out willy-nilly. Nope, they’re based on the success of their activities and how much effort each member puts in.
So, basically, the harder you work and the more success you bring, the fatter your bonus cheque is going to be.
But get this—bonuses aren’t exactly a surprise. The members can usually figure out which activities led to them, sometimes even boosting their monthly salaries.
It’s like a little extra reward for their dedication and hard work, you know?
Now, here’s where it gets really interesting: Remember those rookie groups from back in the day?
Yeah, apparently, their bonuses alone used to be way more than what the current Hinatazaka46 members make in a month. Crazy, right?
According to a senior Seed & Flower Entertainment agency employee, K-Pop group members used to have a ton more work on their plates back then.
But hey, during the early years when they were launching the group, the motivation wasn’t about the money.
Nah, they just wanted to be idols and make their mark in the industry.
But Nao mentioned something that really struck a chord.
She feels like sometimes members leave the group because they can’t make a decent living off just the group’s salary alone.
It’s tough out there, especially when you’re trying to pursue your dreams while also putting food on the table, you know?
Oh, and here’s a tidbit for you: Back in the day, all members would receive New Year’s bonuses too.
It was like a little extra something to kick off the year on a high note.
So, there you have it—the inside scoop on Hinatazaka46’s salary situation, straight from the horse’s mouth.
It’s a tough industry out there, and these idols work their socks off to entertain us day in and day out. Let’s show them some love and support, shall we?
