Kim Soo Hyun’s fees for participating in critically acclaimed show queen of tears The show has been in the spotlight recently as its popularity and fame continue to make headlines.
Soo Hyun initially negotiated a salary of up to 5 billion won for the Korean drama, but recently took a pay cut following controversy surrounding Kim Sae Ron’s latest photos on social media.
However, this hasn’t gone down well in the Korean online community, with netizens sharing their thoughts on the issue.
One user decried the traditions followed by actors in the film industry and raised concerns about appearance fees: “I don’t know if that amount is true, but I’m not just talking about Kim Soo Hyun. I think the percentage of actors being paid for productions is ridiculously high. A large part of the cost seems to be taken up by appearance fees. It’s great if the show is a hit, and it’s fun to get the same money if it fails.”
Another netizen also chimed in: “Although the appearance fee is high… the ratings are good and the sales are good overseas. Isn’t it worth the money as a star?”
A third wrote: “I wonder if it’s really that much but you should make a lot of money while you can.”
For those unfamiliar with it, queen of tears The drama is famous for its huge production cost of 40 billion won, one-eighth of which was allocated to Kim Soo-hyun’s role in the drama alone.
