[theqoo] BRIAN JOO “WHEN I LEFT MY PREVIOUS COMPANY, I DIDN’T EVEN HAVE 10 MILLION WON”
(T/N: 10 million KRW = ~7K USD)
On the 5th, a video titled “Seo In-young’s shocking trash-filled house that you wouldn’t believe someone actually lives in” was uploaded to Seo In-young’s YouTube channel.
When the production staff mentioned that Seo In-young had reportedly blown through around 10 billion won during the peak of her career, (Brian Joo) replied, “I’m jealous.”
He continued, “Back then, I’d never even seen that kind of money. When Hwanhee and I left SM, I don’t think either of us even walked away with 10 million won.”
He also added, “We didn’t make much money during our Fly to the Sky days.”
1. Crazy..
2. It’s a relief that things have improved now. It seems like the two remaining members of DBSK were the right choice after all.
3. SM was the originator of the slave contract… It seems like even the fans over there are so used to being treated like slaves that they take pride in being part of a distinguished family of slaves
4. Of course, there’s a reason standard contracts exist
5. Wow, this is sever
6. And you wonder why SM’s first gen idols never renewed with the companyㅋㅋㅋㅋ
7. Even if he’d worked a part-time job at the minimum wage during that period, he would’ve made several times more. It’s clearly an unfair contract, a slave contract, but I wonder if the company’s cultists would be willing to work for that kind of pay themselves
8. SM’s slave contracts were so infamous. But still, this is quite severe
9. For foreign members, SM would sign a 10-years contract, 7-years if they were Korean members
10. Lee Sooman was such a terrible person
