[enter-talk] IS IT TRUE THAT IU'S APPEARANCE FEE IS 6 BILLION WON?

(T/N: 6 B won = ~4M USD)

A 12-episode series at 500 M won per episode, totaling 6 B won, if this is true, it seems South Korea has no future ㅠ 6 B won for IU with acting skills that bad?

"Although the exact amount of IU’s per-episode fee has not been disclosed, it is reported that she receives approximately 500 M won per episode, one of the highest rates in the industry, for her role in a major drama.

The specific details regarding her appearance fee are as follows.

- Top-tier appearance fee: It has been reported that IU receives an appearance fee in the range of 500 M won per episode for major highly anticipated productions, such as the MBC drama 'Perfect Crown', in which she co-stars with Byun Wooseok."

"Choi Taesung criticizes 'Perfect Crown', actors' salaries run into the tens of millions, while historical accuracy costs only a few hundred thousand won

Choi Taesung, a Korean history instructor and author, has spoken out against MBC’s 'Perfect Crown,' which has been embroiled in a controversy over historical distortion.

On the 18th, Choi posted on his Instagram, "Sigh. Another controversy over historical distortion. At this point, are we just goldfish?" expressing a tone of self-deprecation."

"1. The Korean palace (= the very foundation of the Republic of Korea) is shown being set on fire three separate times.

2. The drama depicts the Korean palace as not even having proper fire extinguishers, with people throwing water using buckets instead.

3. The female lead refuses to wear Korean hanbok.

4. Every single villain in the drama is shown wearing hanbok.

5. In front of the female lead, who rejects hanbok, wears modern clothing, and uses Chinese teacups, the Queen Dowager is the only one wearing hanbok and is shown kneeling before her alone.

6. The Queen Dowager, dressed in hanbok, performs a kneeling apology before the Grand Prince.

7. The female lead uses Chinese-style tea ceremony practices in the Korean royal court.

8. The Korean royal family uses Chinese-brand fountain pens.

9. The male lead says "Cheonse cheonse cheoncheonse" , a phrase historically used by states subordinate to an empire. (If the country were sovereign, the emperor should wear the twelve-symbol crown (십이면류관), but instead he wears the nine-symbol crown (구류면관), which was used by vassals serving the Chinese emperor.)

10. Elements such as hongseo, gujangbok, "cheonse," the erasure of Korea's imperial history, and the use of the nine-symbol crown are all portrayed in ways that make Korea appear like a tributary/vassal state."

"I got the money, so that's that. But since the public reaction is bad, I guess I should just apologize. I'll bow my head in shame"

Is it just a coincidence that IU, who speaks Chinese as fluently as a native speaker, landed the lead role in that drama?

Sigh

If that's how it's going to be, why not just go to China, enjoy the perks of being there, and work there? Why go out of your way to be pro-China in Korea and get flak for it?

500 M won for this?
