1. [+684, -12] Stars make tons of money when they're famous but it's so hard getting to that point

2. [+595, -13] Star trainees need to read this and realize that it's only a very small minority who actually make it

3. [+499, -90] Hul... 0 cents in income... is that a slave contract?
- Not like Tahiti's a successful group, their company invested money into training them and basically feeding them and keeping a roof over their heads
- I get that their company invested in them but no income for four years sounds fishy
- ^ You don't seem to realize that investments are huge
- I'm sure their company is still losing money with their investment on them right now

4. [+403, -9] She's only a "girl group member" on paper, if the group isn't promoting, she might as well be called unemployed. People think that idols are all flashy and successful but there's a lot of luck and effort that goes into it.

5. [+303, -32] It's okay, all you need is one hit track and you can go invest in a building ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

6. [+54, -3] Why would you expect an income if she never got popular... I'm sure their company is already overinvesting on keeping the girl group around with make up, manager, and coordi costs.

7. [+54, -7] A reality check for many teens hoping to be idols in Korea

8. [+36, -0] Even AOA hasn't been paid until recently, it'd be weird if Tahiti had any income

9. [+35, -0] It's not that shocking. But once they do get popular, they all end up investing in real estate, buying their parents new stores, cars, houses... the income gap jumps huge which is why people never bother worrying about celebrities.

10. [+32, -0] Hopefully trainees read this. This is reality.
