4,600,000,000 won (~$4,350,000) – That’s how much girl group T-ara will be paid through their exclusive contract with a Japanese agency.
The news that T-ara would be receiving such a large payment has surprised even Japanese management agencies that recruit Korean singers. This extravagant value means that T-ara is considered to carry a high level of impact on the markets.
Even amist the hardships in Japan, it looks like Hallyu carries on.
