[Instiz] “If CBX earned 50 billion won for 10 years…”
“Surprisingly, I think it’s true that they earned much less than I expected. But ofc, it is indeed a big amount of money.”
8. Leaving the settlement statement aside, wouldn't it be over if you just showed the actual sales contract or revenue data? You would have settled based on that, right? If there are no issues.
5. TBH, I agree. It sounds like a huge amount when you just hear it, but after hearing about the tax evasion amounts of other celebrities, my concept of money is shattered, so a strange phenomenon is happening where it looks smaller than expected ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
6. Isn’t their peak period short?
> 17. Even if you say it’s short, they were at the top for four years from 2013 to 2016, and weren't they first-tier (idol) until their military hiatus? Plus, they did individual activities during their military hiatus, and in B's case, his solo career was also a huge hit...Isn't it a bit ambiguous to define it solely by their peak period?
7. Is it individually 50 billion? Or the 3 combined?
> 8. Combined
> Writer : I thought it was 50 billion per person and I was surprised to know that 50 billion for the 3 of them
> 7. Wow they were srsly didn’t earn much…I think even if you compare it now with SM junior male group, they didn’t earn much
8. If that is the combined total for three people, not per person, it seems like they really didn't get much in settlement after taxes
9. It is indeed low considering that the annual salary of a top-tier male idol is 1.6 billion won
12. But it srsly doesn’t feel like a lot
Writer : I don't really know...I was just surprised because that looked like so little to me. I saw comments saying that even a top-tier idol group from 20 years ago who didn't even hold concerts had over 10 billion won in their bank account back then ㅠ But ofc, 50 billion won is a lot of money!!!ㅠㅠ Anyway, you know what I mean, right?
17. They say the problem arose because they weren't shown the settlement details when people were curious...Couldn't they just show the breakdown of how much was invested in each activity, what the expenses were, and how the money was divided? Even ordinary people check their pay statements when they think something is off
> Writer : What are you talking about regarding the settlement details? They didn't show them? Why?
>> 17. I think the first issue arose in '23 or so, regarding them not providing settlement details. C asked for the statement, but since SM was talking about tampering and such at the time, they apparently said that access was only for viewing due to concerns about data leaks. Also, judging by what people are saying in the community, after the contract renewal, the scandal involving LSM's paper companies broke out, and LSM left, so I suspect C might have wanted to verify the details because he had doubts about them. I wonder if the issue became as big as it is now if they had just confirmed how the settlement was calculated when he was curious about the basis for his payment. Since he asked to see it but they refused, it seems like it just turned into a situation where he thought, "Oh, is there something going on?"
>>> Writer : Huh? Why they refused it? Of course they have to show it
>>> 17. Exactly…
23. SM just needs to show the settlement statement? The settlement data? And so wouldn't that solve the problem?
29. Oh..I think they didn’t earn as much as I expected
30. 50 billion won pre-tax over 12 years ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ I'd question the settlement too. He poured his heart and soul into group activities, units, SuperM, and solo work...sigh..Baekhyun, hwaiting
SM vs. CBX — The next hearing is scheduled for June 18 at 11:20 a.m.
1. SM denied the validity of CBX's claim of a verbal agreement guaranteeing a distribution commission in exchange for paying 10% of sales
— CBX’s side responded that a verbal agreement can still be valid even without a written contract.
*side note: In the emergency press conference they stated there is a recording of the agreement and later on Chris lee and Sm stated that yes that agreement did indeed happen
2. SM claims to have paid around ₩50 billion to CBX as settlement payments but refuses to provide any settlement data to prove CBX were not underpaid.
— CBX’s side argued, “For example, if revenue is generated from concerts or album sales and needs to be settled, there should be actual sales contracts or revenue data. However, we have never received such materials even once."

from another op! and ofc he went together with his lovely wooseok 🤣
"he (xiumin) kept going around here and there so we kept crossing paths 😆"
🙋🏻♀️: oppa you're handsome!!!
🐈⬛: *bow* *shy...*
On tonight’s MBC Radio Star’s episode, Song Habin will appear as a cat dad and boast that one if his cat once ranked 1 in views and mentioned Xiumin as one of the celebrities who gave a out to his cats 😆

The same way Xiumin in 2024 was literally hyping everyone—
“Did you watch Baekhyun’s MV? Chanyeol’s Black Out? Suho’s on tour, right? Didn’t D.O. go to the Philippines?!”
They will never be the bad guys..
we got xiumin photo yeay!🥹
mukyang2food insta:
"as always yesterday too,
our place was packed with customers and overflowing laughter
in the midst of it all,
xiumin-nim quietly stopped by
even within that busy moment he's truly very kind, which made him an even cooler person"
XHS post OP meeting Xiumin
“Is randomly running into Kim Minseok in Apgujeong even real… am I that lucky? 😦”
In the afternoon while shopping, I was literally telling my friends how I’m always so oblivious, I never look up when I walk, so even if an idol passed by, I probably wouldn’t recognize them.
And then somehow, that same useless eyesight suddenly worked at night!
While we were having dinner (at a BBQ place that the 96-line likes), I casually glanced at a table diagonally in front of us and saw someone who kind of looked like Xiumin. I told my friends, and we all just assumed it was a really handsome guy who resembled him. At one point he stepped out, and when he came back, my friend sitting across from me looked carefully and confirmed, it was actually Xiumin himself!
After we paid, my friend used Papago to write a message asking if we, Chinese EXO-Ls, could get an autograph. She gathered the courage to show it to his friend… and unexpectedly, he agreed!
He was so gentle too, he asked each of us for our names, and even repeated them back after hearing them. (We honestly thought just getting a signature would be enough… never did we imagine an idol would say our full names out loud 😭 he’s seriously too kind!)
As soon as he finished signing, we immediately left, basically ran away in a fluster😦
Kim Minseok in real life is seriously so handsome. He was wearing gold-rim glasses and looked incredibly gentle. His face is tiny, and his smile is so beautiful. He really looks like he hasn’t aged at all. Being with his friends, he seemed very relaxed and happy, enjoying his meal. 😘
