Thanks to the movie and commercials, Korean actors have extremely high incomes. In 2021, CEO World magazine has announced the list of 5 actors with the highest net worth in Korea.

As a result, "teacher" Kim Soo Hyun, who has a net worth of up to 117 million dollars, is at the top of the list (about 2674 billion dong).

This is hardly surprising given that he is currently the highest-paid actor in the Korean entertainment industry for films and ads.

Even yet, Kim Soo Hyun's net worth is about three times that of the runner-up, So Ji Sub.

Lee Jong Suk, Lee Min Ho, and Song Joong Ki are the other names in the top five.
