I genuinely thought every kpop stan knew that a majority of idols make little to no money during their entire career like not even beyond common knowledge I thought it was just a given that everyone knows that since it’s been talked about SO many times but apparently not only do a lot of stans not know that they get mad if anyone, idol or not, points it out

#both in Korean and internationally #like people who got mad at Hanse when he talked about music shows #cause he’s an idol and his life can’t be as hard as theirs when it’s like a fuckin victon member isn’t the bourgeoisie 😭#or people who made daisy delete her tweet about how no one gets paid #words of mine #fromis 9 not getting paid is some bs though they’d make money if they were more active #I wonder what the minimal level of success to get paid would be…I’m assuming dreamcatcher gets paid since they renewed their contracts #but some groups people would consider more successful in some ways probably don’t #and I can’t imagine anyone lower does #like there’s no way say a weeekly member has ever seen a cent #for an example of a group that has sales most would consider pretty good #also we know from loona that companies just it so that they can’t get paid no matter how successful anyway #idk why people who aren’t ’celebrities shouldn’t talk about their problems’ types would get mad at those who point this out though #but they do…I guess it’s an image thing
