It seems like New Jeans made a lot of money.

 


This is their dorm. I thought it was just a living room, but it's not even that; it's the view from Danielle's room. Seriously, I'm so envious. They say all five of them have separate rooms, and on top of that, with a Han River view... They've only debuted for a year and a half, and they already live in such a house. I'm seriously jealous.

[+879][-61]

1. [+270][-5] Hyein's life must be really fun. Living in a Han River view apartment on your own during middle school

2. [+250][-6] ? It's not even the living room, but a bedroom? That's impressive.

3. [+191][-11] Wow, but it's only been a year and a half since their debut, and they're already earning this much. Imagine how enormous their earnings will be when they accumulate more experience, go on tours, etcㅋㅋㅋ

4. [+156][-14] Seriously, I totally get why people are going crazy. They haven't even been on world tours since their debut a year and a half ago, and if they're moving into houses like that, they're going to be set for life once they build up more experience.

5. [+131][-9] Someone in the comments said they probably lived in the same house since they were trainees, but no, New Jeans didn't have separate rooms when they were trainees, and they moved into this house about two months ago. If they can afford such a place with five separate rooms, it's just New Jeans making a lot of money.

6. [+102][-6] It's crazy how teenagers to young adults like them are already living such a luxurious life. I envy the fact that they can earn money and enjoy living in a nice house at such a young age the most.

7. [+94][-71] As expected, Pann users are speaking the truth. Minji used to get criticized all the time but now, the news keeps coming about how well New Jeans is doing. From winning Billboard awards to moving into a five-bedroom apartment with a Han River view, the haters must be burning with jealousy. They'll probably start saying that everything is because of HYBE now. 

8. [+73][-6] I'm in my late 20s, and it's hard for me to save up 100 million won even after working myself to death for years. For them, 100 million won is probably pocket change. They received their first settlement less than a year after debut, and I bet it was in the tens of millions. It seems like not only Newkidd but also entertainers in general have an abnormally high income structure. It seems like the top 1% in South Korea are entertainers.

9. [+72][-3] It's true that idols have become extremely aristocratic in just a few years... In the past, even Girls' Generation, who were at the top of K-pop and made a fuss whenever they were mentioned in the U.S., lived together in a small dorm until they became independent. But now, Korean idols have become completely globalized, earning foreign currency left and right, and their image has completely changed from before.

10. [+72][-1] If they made 890 billion won in revenue and 20 billion won in profit by the third quarter, they probably made over 100 billion won in revenue by the fourth quarter. And they still have more left over.

What do you think about (G)I-DLE's Super Lady?

 


[+147][-232]
1. [+176][-38] The sentiment of 2NE1 vibes seems real. The feeling of 2NE1 was somewhat present, and the music video was cool. 

2. [+158][-18] With (G)I-DLE's songs, they always seem strange at first listen and gradually become addictive.

3. [+149][-44] Because I like the 2NE1 vibe, I really enjoyed it. 

4. [+148][-31] I'm a Neverland. It seems like this song is a international-targeted track, so I had high expectations, which were somewhat disappointing, but still goodㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ It's refreshing and quite exciting with a new concept instead of similar onesㅎㅎ Miyeon's face is insane! Even though the Chinese economy isn't doing well, their album continues to rise, which is impressive.


5. [+142][-32] They always come up with something new and exciting. 

6. [+131][-43] It feels like it's made without much professionalism, just with a huge capital, like a cheap YG vibe... The songs have always been decent, but even after listening repeatedly, they still feel so-so.

7. [+127][-3]"I'm The Best" 2024 version. 

8. [+98][-10] The title track is great, but the side tracks are no joke. 

9. [+75][-5] Looking forward to the year-end stage already.

10. [+73][-7] It's too much... When you watch the music video, you don't even hear the song, and even when you listen to just the song, it feels confusing.

Cha Eunwoo's younger brotherㅋㅋ

 The genetics are remarkable...


[+655][-11]

1. [+307][-4] He's an ordinary person who hasn't had any cosmetic procedures done, but looking like that, it's understandable why Cha Eunwoo said his younger brother looks even better.

2. [+277][-3] Really? He looks like a handsome actor from China. At this point, I'm curious about his parents' faces.

3. [+254][-4] He looks exactly like Cha Eunwoo. He gives off a vibe similar to Cha Eunwoo but without the prettiness in his face.

4. [+204][-1] Wow, I'm really curious about their parents' faces... Their eyebrows and nose look exactly the same.

5. [+100][-1] I heard Cha Eunwoo doesn't want his brother's photos to be publicized... But I couldn't help but look, he's really good-looking.

6. [+88][-0] I hope Cha Eunwoo's parents keep having children with a heart to serve the world...

7. [+79][-0] Cha Eunwoo doesn't want his brother to become famous either, and his brother doesn't like it either... What are you doing posting pictures of ordinary people? If you have a conscience, please delete them; they're already being criticized.

Lee Jieun and Park Bogum confirmed to star in Netflix's When Life Gives You Tangerines

 

theqoo 

-They haven't confirmed the release date, but the production itself is already confirmed, right?

-How much is the production budget.. going with Netflix? Should've been on TV instead...

-I also thought it was going to be on TV ㅠㅠㅠ

-It's been confirmed on Netflix for quite a while. It's a Netflix original.

-I thought it was going to be on TV too.

-It would've been better if it was on TV.

-I'm totally looking forward to this.

-I like Netflix. Can't wait to watch it soon.

-So, is it going to be released all at once?

-It's a shame it's not on TVㅠ

-I'm so excited, it'll probably come out this year.

-Seeing it like this makes me even more excited.

-Finallyㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ So excited!! Can't wait to see itㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ

The English title is 'When life gives you tangerines.' Ah, it's so cute.
ㄴIt's a famous English saying, 'When life gives you lemons, make lemonade,' which means to turn adversity into opportunity or to make the best out of a bad situation. Since the drama is set in Jeju, they probably replaced lemons with tangerines. The English title would be 'When life gives you tangerines'... so adorable 🍊🍊

Han Geng reveals, "I even considered 'extreme choices' during my time in Super Junior... My income was less than when I was a trainee."

 

On the 28th (local time), an interview video with Han Geng was uploaded on the online channel 'PhoenixTV'. Han Geng revealed that he experienced stress and nightmares every day while active as a member of Super Junior at SM Entertainment, even having suicidal thoughts.

Han Geng mentioned that his family's financial situation was not good from a young age. Therefore, with the thought of making money by becoming famous, he signed a 13-year contract with SM Entertainment at the age of 19. At that time, his father regretted his own incompetence, saying, "I sold my child."

Arriving in Korea as a trainee, Han Geng practiced from morning till night every day. He said, "The trainee days were very difficult," often not even realizing he was injured.

Han Geng debuted as a member of Super Junior in 2005 and gained popularity. However, income distribution and other factors became stressors for him. He revealed that he did not receive a large amount of money during the first settlement. "I had to return some of the income to the company. Therefore, my income was less than when I was a trainee," he said. It is said that he received living expenses from SM Entertainment during his trainee days and paid it back after debuting.

Han Geng eventually decided to leave the company and suffered from severe depression, experiencing nightmares. He confessed that he once said to his father over the phone, "What if I make an 'extreme choice' someday?"

In 2009, Han Geng left Super Junior and SM Entertainment. He reminisced, saying it was "a very good decision" as he could return to his hometown and build an acting career. He expressed gratitude, saying that despite the difficult times, he was able to grow through his activities in Korea.

theqoo

-Why blame the victims when it's the company that didn't pay?

-Han Geng also sued in 2009, shortly after JYJ. So, if Han Geng left after facing similar contract conditions as JYJ, it's likely that both Han Geng and JYJ had unfair contracts and poor treatment.

-It's a story from 15 years ago, why does it matter?

-Because of Han Geng, laws changed, and the standard 7-year contracts were altered.

-That guy was the real problem, for sure.

-Wait, the agency isn't a charity organization, and even in those days when there was no such system, they probably provided living expenses and accommodation for Han Geng, an overseas member. Until they turned a profit, it's natural that he didn't receive proper accounting. What kind of entertainer gets paid as soon as they debut? At that time, there were no concepts of copyright, and they only made money from albums and concerts. It's amazing how they thought they'd turn a profit so quickly. Of course, life must have been hard for him personally, and I don't want to deny that, but do people not realize that accounting isn't such an easy issue? Naturally, they would earn more now than back then, isn't that expected?

-It's an old issue about not getting paid, so why get mad about bringing it up?

-It's nonsense to criticize without knowing anything, just because you want to. Whether they talk about it at that time or not, should they not be able to say anything after several years have passed? Do they have to keep quiet and live? It's really nonsense. 

-Han Geng words seem to be right back then... Brian also mentioned some things. During that time, there was a lot of suffering, and they couldn't earn much money. Everything changed before and after the trial with JYJ. It doesn't seem like baseless talk when they share their own experiences, but what's up with those who just want to criticize unconditionally?

-What's with the people who seem to idolize the company? Do they just want to blindly hate again?

-Things improved after JYJ left, didn't they?

-If Han Geng won the lawsuit, it means there were issues with SM, but what's up with the people here who keep criticizing Hankyung?
