Hey there, have you heard about the latest scoop on LE SSERAFIM? So, Kazuha, one of the senior members, spilled some tea about their salaries during a livestream. And get this—right when they started discussing it, the livestream got cut! Talk about drama, huh?
Anyway, let’s dive into what Kazuha revealed.
Apparently, the members were chatting about how much they make in a month.
Kazuha mentioned that their salary is divided by a fixed amount, which determines their monthly pay.
But here’s the kicker—they also get bonuses on top of that!
These bonuses are based on how successful their activities are, and if members go the extra mile and bring in more success individually.
And get this—bonuses aren’t exactly a surprise.
The members can usually figure out which activities scored them those bonuses, which can really beef up their salaries at times.
It’s like getting a little extra reward for all their hard work, you know?
Now, here’s where it gets interesting.
Kazuha spilled that for some rookie groups, bonuses alone back then were way more than their current monthly salary.
Can you imagine that? It’s wild how much the industry has changed over the years.
And guess what?
A senior employee from Source Music Entertainment, Kim Jungeun, chimed in too.
She admitted that back in the day, LE SSERAFIM members had a ton more work to do.
But you know what kept them going during those early years?
Their sheer passion for being idols.
They weren’t even thinking about the money back then!
But here’s the thing—Kazuha also mentioned that some members have left the group because they couldn’t sustain a living from just their salary alone.
It’s tough out there, especially when you’re trying to make it in the cutthroat world of K-Pop.
Oh, and get this—back then, all members would receive New Year’s bonuses too.
It’s like a little extra something to ring in the new year, you know?
So, there you have it—the inside scoop on LE SSERAFIM’s salaries.
It’s crazy to think about how much goes into making it as a K-Pop idol, from the long hours of practice to the uncertain paycheques.
But hey, at the end of the day, it’s all worth it for the love of music and the fans, right?
