The Richest K-Pop Groups, Including BTS and More

The Richest K-Pop Groups, Including BTS and More K-pop is suddenly a bigger business than ever. Korean pop musicâ€"usually referred to by its shorthand, “K-pop”â€"has been reliably commercial across East Asia for years, but it’s only more recently become a global moneymaker. “We’re at a really exciting turning point. A lot more American record labels and American brands and companies are looking to see how they can tap into these artists,” says music journalist and Billboard K-pop columnist Jeff Benjamin. Global brands have already gotten in on the action, with Hyundai and Samsung striking deals with K-pop superstars. Meanwhile, American listeners are responding in droves: In 2018, leading K-pop acts began edging their way onto American sales charts alongside the likes of Drake, Taylor Swift, and Ed Sheeran, making them crossover stars in a way they’ve never been before. Benjamin broke down his ranking of the richest groups in K-pop right now based on various income streams and available figures. Here are the 9 richest K-pop bands who are making major moves. 9. Got7 Getty Images This boy band is made up of multinational members from South Korea, the U.S., Thailand, and Hong Kong. This might help explain the group’s wide appeal across continents. “They’ve reached all over Asia and America,” Benjamin says. “They played Barclays Center [in Brooklyn] and The Forum [in Los Angeles] last year. They have strong album sales and OK endorsement deals.” Got7 had a winning streak on the Gaon album chart in 2018 (Gaon is more or less the equivalent of Billboard in South Korea). Touring is essential to any working musician’s income, and the band’s ability to touch down globally has been key to its rise. 8. Red Velvet Han Myung-Gu, Getty Images K-pop girl groups, unfortunately, often don’t have it as easy as their male counterparts. “There’s this kind of unwritten rule in K-pop I’m still trying to understand where male acts earn more from album sales and touring, and female acts tend to make most of their money from endorsement deals,” Benjamin says. Red Velvet has been nailing it on the endorsement front. Lead singer Irene has signed deals as a spokesperson for Maxwell House coffee and contact lens maker Cooper Vision. And Red Velvet has been really good at sustaining overseas interest, Benjamin adds. Its single “Bad Boy” reached No. 18 among K-pop acts on Billboard’s 2018 World Digital Songs sales chart. 7. Wanna One Getty Images Even though they technically “disbanded” at the beginning of the year, Wanna One made their collective time in the spotlight fruitful with strong endorsement deals and major sales. “They were a temporary group,” says Benjamin, but that didn’t stop their only studio album 1 ¹ ¹=1 (Power of Destiny) from reaching a career high in 2018, selling 438,000 physical copies in just its first week. That would be an astounding figure in the U.S.â€"a much bigger country than South Koreaâ€"but as Benjamin explains, South Korea still has an amazing culture of buying physical CDs, which are sold “more like books with intricate album packaging and all these photos.” 6. Seventeen Getty Images Seventeen is another boy band (with, somewhat confusingly, 13 members) that has pushed beyond selling records. They’ve entered the all-important beauty market, becoming models for the cosmetics brand Saem. And they’ve made inroads beyond their homeland: The group’s Japanese debut in 2018 managed to hit the top of the country’s daily album charts. They’ve also toured extensively. 5. EXO Shutter Stock EXO (pronounced “XO”) knows how to sell records. In addition to brand deals, their “really high album sales,” as Benjamin says, have buoyed them across the world. They have Korean and Chinese members and sing in Korean as well as Mandarin. The nine-member group’s 2018 album Don’t Mess Up My Tempo hit No. 5 among K-pop acts on Billboard’s World Albums chart. And appetite is high: Their concert tickets have gone for up to $1,400 on the online secondary market, according to the South China Morning Post. 4. TVXQ Alamy Stock Photo TVXQ is more or less The Eagles of K-pop. “They’re a veteran act,” says Benjamin, and while that doesn’t come with the perks of being the hot new thing, “they’re legends in Japan. They bring in so much money for a small number of concerts.” While “they don’t sell as much as they used to,” their ability to tap into the massive touring market in Asia has allowed them to continually rake in huge piles of cash. In Japan, the second-largest music market behind the U.S., TVXQ set a record by selling one million tickets for its tour last year. 3. Blackpink Getty Images While Blackpink “doesn’t have album sales as strong” as some of the competition, Benjamin notes, the girl group tours extensively, and has Western appeal: They’re preparing for an American tour in 2019 that will include the all-important stadiums. And their wide-ranging appeal in Japan has only boosted their revenue streams. 2. Twice Getty Images Twice are the reigning queens of K-pop. While album sales tend to be softer for girl groups, the act has proved the exception. They’ve also latched onto prolific endorsement deals, from video games to uniforms to…a chicken franchise. This year looks to be a repeat of their success. “They’re about to have the first stadium tour in Japan for a K-pop girl group,” Benjamin adds. 1. BTS Photo Illustration by Lixia Guo; Steve Granitzâ€"Getty Images If you’ve heard of one K-pop band, it’s almost certainly BTS. The group of supremely handsome men “checks off all the boxes,” as Benjamin puts it. Their album sales across international music markets speak for themselves: BTS earned the No. 8 position on Billboard’s 2018 Top Artist chart (which includes American acts like Taylor Swift). In South Korea, they took home not just the best-selling album of the year, but also the runner-up, selling 2.2 million and 1.8 million copies of Love Yourself: Answer and Love Yourself: Tear, respectively. They’ve also collaborated with the likes of Desiigner (“MIC Drop,” No. 1 among K-pop acts on Billboard’s World Digital Songs chart) and Nicki Minaj (“Idol,” No. 3). In addition to extreme Japanese fandom, their American devotion is unreal: According to secondary ticket marketplace TicketCity, the most expensive ticket to one of the concerts on their new world tour sold for an astounding $3,849.38â€"for a show in Chicagoâ€"and on average tickets sold for $823, making them a pricier item than Taylor Swift’s Reputation tour. But those are only a few of the components adding up to BTS’ undeniable superstardom. Endorsements have been flooding in. Alongside a sold-out Puma collaboration, the group has a partnership with Hyundai. The automaker has pushed BTS far beyond Asia, tapping them as global brand ambassadors for its new Palisade SUV, with a heartwarming ad about family. Hyundai has reportedly been struggling to keep up with demand for the car as a result. This kind of multinational promotion matters because “there’s more opportunity not just in terms of initial payment for signing on, but also the amount of income on a larger global scale,” Benjamin concludes. Needless to say, BTS isn’t going anywhere.

Jump Up A Level In Your Career - Work It Daily

Jump Up A Level In Your Career - Work It Daily Want to jump up a level in your career? You're not the only one. Related: 7 Sacrifices You Need To Make To Advance Your Career A reader sent me the following question: Dear YII, I graduated in 2009, and am currently working as a development assistant at a small TV production company in the LA area. I’m writing you because I’m looking to make that big “JUMP” in my career to a major network or a bigger production company. I have tons of experience and am very good at what I do. I’m currently making $12.50 an hour and am extremely frustrated (not with the position, but the money). I guess my question is, how do I do this? - D Here’s The Deal Many, many, MANY people start out in entertainment making a pittance and being otherwise abused, either intentionally or not. Some do unpaid post-graduate internships on movie sets and at small production companies hoping for their big break. Some, such as your self, work in “administrative” positions doing far more than your salary and title indicates. The Good News This is a tried and true path to moving up in the industry and, congratulations, you have broken in to your chosen field! Check that step off your list! The Bad News It might take a while to make the jump up. Even poorly-paying jobs like yours are sought-after by the thousands wanting to break in behind you and moving up a notch is even more challenging. Also, you have been at your position less than a year so you will probably have to tough it out at least a few more months, but you can start positioning yourself for the leap now. The Strategy Focus on doing the things in your job that either qualify you to move up in your current job or help you land your next job, such as networking and building relationships (both to increase your worth inside this job and to locate your next job), knowing the projects and material and key players out there, getting talent attached to your boss’s projects, creating show bibles, etc. Do the administrative part of your job only well enough so you don’t risk getting fired. (Being great at admin won’t get you to the next level, it will only get you more admin work and your boss will be hesitant to let his “stellar assistant” move up.) And Don’t Forget Have a current resume ready to go at all times that markets you for your next move. Focus on highlighting victories in the above areas, not the day-to-day admin. Don’t be hesitant to tell people you are looking for your next step and to submit yourself for open jobs. (If it gets back to your boss, you will say you need more money and you want an opportunity to move up. He or she will understand and may even give you the chance rather than risk losing you.) The Bottom Line This is advice you can use throughout your career each time you are ready to move up. Start doing the job above you. It’s the quickest, surest way to success in any field.

4 Strategies For Surviving Work Travel After Baby

4 Strategies For Surviving Work Travel After Baby Having done the work-travel-as-a-new-mama thing a few times, I can related to the jumble of emotions that comes along with such a trip. My very first work trip after becoming a mom welches from Washington, DC, where I live, to Chicago. My son was 6 months old, and I did a whirlwind 36-hour trip to give a talk at a conference. My heart and body physically ached at leaving him longer than an 8-hour work day. I was undeniably a hot mess. I remember staring longingly at any airplane-bound babysobbing uncontrollably in the airport bathroomand pumping while sitting in my airplane seat. Yes, that was incredibly awkward, but I couldnt figure out where else to do it, and I was leaking. (How I wish something like the Freemie had existed back then)At that point, my son wasnt interested in taking a bottle from anyone but his daycare teachers, so I wasnt even sure he would eat while I was away. And while everyone told me at least youll sleep the n ight, that simply wasnt true, as I needed to interrupt my sleep at some crazy hour to pump. When my talk at the conference was over, I literally ran to a taxi, feeling that sense of must be with my heartthrob NOW urgency one feels in the first few months of falling in love.My first little work trip was just that little. But it felt like a huge deal at the time. I couldnt even fathom how some of my friends with small babies had gone away longer for days or weeks and further some traveling internationally with coolers of dry ice to bring home their pumped milk. When I went away on longer trips that first year, I was lucky enough to be able to bring my little guy with me (my husband has a flexible schedule so could watch him during my conferences). And while bringing the baby has its own set of challenges, they dont include missing him desperately or pumping gallons of milk.Things change as our kiddos grow, of course. Mine are now 4 and 6, and now that (a) Im past the hormonal issu es associated with giving birth and breastfeeding and (b) have been sleep-deprived for going on 6 years now, I have a very different perspective on work travel.Now I CAN sleep the night in a gloriously comfortable hotel bed. Now I CAN enjoy a nice, long, meeting-free, mommy-request-free airplane ride. And now I CAN leavemy childrencards and notes and do FaceTime with them in a way thats meaningful. When I left for my most recent trip, they waved and blew kisses to me as I got into my taxi. And while I missed them, I did revel in a night of cocktails with colleagues followed by 8+ hours of uninterrupted sleep.So, if youre planning to take a business trip without baby after your return to work, heres what I recommend1. Focus on the good things.If your baby is tiny, the best thing about your trip may be that your baby gets to bond with someone else. And that someone else may get to learn a few things about caring for baby and holding down the fort that they didnt know. (These are thing s you can and should continue to rely on them for even after you get home)2. Breathe in deeply the change of scenery andsneak in self-care. Been sitting in your house with baby for a few months while on leave? Tired of the stacks of paper in your office? Focus on the work trip as a way to awaken your senses to something new, and to breathe in some new and different air and sights. Make some time for YOU, too. On various trips, Ive managed to do things including getting a pedicure, walking on the beach, taking a nap, taking a yoga class, going shopping, and seeing a Broadway show. I also like to bring my journal with me nearly all my journal entries since having children have been written from airports.3. Be present to your feelings.No use fighting them. Just feel. Take them in. And keep moving through them. Ive been at airports where Ive wanted to scoop up a little toddler strangers and kiss them, which told me yes, I missed my boys. Its okay to acknowledge the missing. And then wh en that feeling has passed, its okay to feel good about taking time for yourself and your career.4. Know that baby will be FINE. Just fine. On that first trip I took, it turns out my son didnt drink anything for about 12+ hours. And then he caved, of course, and guzzled a few bottles of milk when he got desperate. Youve inevitably left the baby with a competent caregiver so trust that all will be well.And on the flip side, if youre thinking about bringing your baby with you on the trip, and you can swing itmy advice is to go for it now Before she can run and raise hell on an airplane. Or before he reaches an age where gebtheit is absolutely king. Or before you have a second kid, making the whole prospect of traveling with both children make you crave a blissfully quiet trip alone.--Lori K.
