Another one to add is Ricky from Zerobaseone. He has been very open that he is absolutely loaded and even the members joke about it a lot lol. His mother is was a model and now has her own clothing label in China (I think that is correct). He's worked very hard though as far as I can see. Yes, money can open some doors but money can't buy you the ability to dance and sing and he has worked hard to prove that he has both!
No cause after I finished the video out loud I literally said yall forgot about ricky of zerobaseone and I literally saw your comment
Be for real! His parents' money is the only reason he is an idol.
nah also cuz he is majestic asf @@ricky_son_of_a_bish
@@ricky_son_of_a_bish oh I don't doubt that it probably helped get him into YueHa and the idol life but he's currently holding up his own and I have always been one of the people who couldn't understand how Ricky got voted in lol. Credit where credit is due.
@@AV-ks1gp Nah, he is very lacking as an idol. He should thank his parents, otherwise he would have been eliminated in the first episodes of Boys Planet.
Jay & Jake came from a very rich family too. Even Ni-Ki.
Sunghoon too
@@ruku3408 I think none of Enhypen ever struggle when they were young. They have comfortable lives. Heeseung father graduated from SNU where his brother now a student. SNU is one of the prestigious/Ivy league university in South Korea.
@@user-ke3ur5ej8t what about sunoo? I don't know anything about him in that way
I would add Chenle of NCT Dream
I was thinking about Chenle from NCT and Jay from ENHYPEN the most.
and ricky from zb1 😭
Exo's suho
Also most, if not all, of WayV lmao
He’s actually the richest lmao, his family company is one of the biggest in Chin.
Now I would like to see a video with idols from a modest/average background, to see the contrast and to see if it really makes a difference
Riize Sohee, IU, Suga are a few examples
@@IAmACatMeowMeowIDontLikeYouI think V of BTS too
hao from ZB1
The difference is HUGE! Passion runs through both classes but idols from lower & middle class is something else. The way they fought & became successfull without pulling the strings is impressive, note that they also didn't rely on their visuals.
woow, thank for your responses guys¡¡
Is interesting to see other POVs, since many ppl thinks idols are all born rich, and of course that couldn't be true, just because of statistically reasons
Chenle from NCT dream’s family is one of the richest families in china
Me wishing to be a kpop idol vs. me thinking its so tiring and draining.....
That is so true😂
when I saw this notif I jsut sigh and didn't watch but yt refreshed somehow and I'm here..Its not like its their fault theyre rich..but they got a privilege I wish I had..a talentless person like me needs to work 10x harder...can't pay for tuition classes etc
Those idols were rich even before debut.
A note on Loren, he doesn’t manage a distribution company called AWAL, his music is distributed by the company AWAL. It stands for artists without labels. It’s a massive company for indie and independent artists
I would add nct chenle, enhypen jay and beamon pharita
Zb1 Ricky is also damn rich....
minnie too apparently also dita so most foreign idols
as long as they behave well...kindness counts.
The fact that Chenle isn’t here is a crime 😭😭
it’s not that deep acting like it’s a competition the video is just about the life of them rich kpop idols
@@aevictoria8041 the fact that u took this comment as something serious is beyond astonishing to me
Anton: Born this way by Lady Gaga
Even Itzy's members said Lia has lots of branded stuff. Designer's clothes, bags, shoes etc.
Blackjacks Giselle & Lia being loaded like their fave 2NE1 sunbaes CL & Bom respectively. CL & Bom probably were the two richest trainees in YG before, even richer than YG himself considering YG wasn't that big before.
CL in majority throughout her student life studied in international schools in Japan & France. Her Family is affluent, Aunts include Trial Court Judge, Gallery Owner & uncle who is a CEO of a trading company. Not to mention her dad is a world renowned Physicist & her mother was a pottery artist.
Bom from 5th grade until college lived in America. She finished middle & high school in Gould Academy tuition to this day is $39,600 to $60,000. She then first studied in Lesley University studying Psychology but later-on transfered to Berklee College of Music, tuition is $46,800. Her dad is a CEO of a Med Tech company & her sister is a cellist. During 2NE1's rookie year they used Bom's dad's credit card to buy stage outfits & basic commodities. Her grandparents house is a traditional Korean estate house having a big front lawn & backyard.
There is more idols are rich like Jay, Jake, Ricky, Beomgyu, Minnie, Jin, and Pharita
It is always their performance and actions as a kpop performer that people care the most. Coming from a rich family won't make people like them way more. Most of them in the list are beloved simply because they are hardworking and humble
Exactly
Hardworking but never cared to work for improving their dancing & singing ability. They choose what they want to excell & majority of them chose being an mc and half of them are shit at work now they ahve to rely on becoming amabassadors & this is where it falls.
😮There is a wrong picture of Anton's mom in this video. She is not Anton's mom. Two different actresses with the same name.~~😮😊
u forgot to add jay from enhypen 😂
I feel like because he doesn't flaunt alot so ppl don't know that he is rich
@@3kuwushi he don’t because i didn’t even know he was rich 😭😭😭😭
@@3kuwu what idols flaunt their wealth
@@8luvbug A Chinese guy from a Mnet survival show.
ARR WE NOT TALKING ABOUT CHENLE FROM NCT?!?!?! His grandfather is the richest man of China hahaha
Their tuition for school per year, wouldn't give me a modest life but a lavish one for good years, even make my businesses💀
Well sometimes I think why would you go through all the hardship and harsh reality of being an idol when you are that rich?! Yes if you like singing and it's your dream ok but I think some idols are not as rich as they seem to be.
that’s their passion
well i mean unless these idols are going around bragging their families’ wealth and looking down on people, them growing up rich is not something you can blame them for since thats not something they can choose and as long as they are working hard to be idols i see nothing wrong with supporting them
If its true that theyre rich then they are. Its not their fault. We should just see it as it is. Theyre born with it for us whos not them just let it be. Just not sow negativity just because theyre rich. Even if theyre rich and flaunting it its on them. But i guess culture will have a very heavy role on how rich idols should act and society dictates that even if you are you have to fit right in. In short be modest. It has pros and cons. But all in all every person will have its opinion on the matter. What we want to avoid is to put negativity on them just because theyre rich.
he's not narcissistic..you're pathetic. he's never once said anything harmful or questionable. "young, rich, and handsome" is a joke every fan is fine with except for you annoying haters@@diovnm
@@diovnm he doesnt wtf there is a difference between being open about vs being arrogant ps this has nothing to w narcissism, fact check yourself before hating
@@diovnm it’s literally a joke, and actually it’s quite the opposite. the only person who would hate him for his harmless joke are insecure kids. ricky IS humble, just because he is rich doesn’t automatically make him not. “young and rich, tall and handsome” is a catchphrase rhats supposed to be funny, never taken seriously. if you’re SO hurt by that, it says a lot about your personality. never once did he put anyone under him, and he only EVER used that joke in boys planet or when quoting himself. you need to grow up
i’m not making you look like a scumbag by simply repeating what you’re doing? by all means, if that’s what you interpreted your actions as, you do you. and pls, half of the industry is made for “attracting 14 year old girls” so that is in no way a drag 🙏🏽🙏🏽. and i refuse to believe you’re not jealous or insecure or so on, because that’s what all overly criticizing haters/antis/netizens/fans are.
and notice how only you are the one taking this so personally? no fans are, and i’ve never seen a netizen that isn’t plain hating or complaining ever say this. reflecting isn’t healthy, so you should refrain from doing so. plus, you have no idea who ricky is, and you don’t get to say whether he’s humble or down to earth or not 🤣. most of his actions, if you payed attention to him since you seem to do so, actually go against your point. get a life, please, it’s embarrassing. also, most male idols have a “bad boy attitude” for the sake of attracting new fans. i’m not the ignorant one here for taking a joke so seriously
@@diovnm
also Chenle & Ten from NCT
and Yangyang, maybe even the second richest one in NCT lmao. Most (if not all) of WayV should be here tbh
ANTON: born this way by lady gaga 🦕
I love that even though some kpop idol are born rich they don't show it off and use for gpod use and they also stay humble and kind to others and help those in need
changbin from skz also has a rich background!
See if it wasn’t common knowledge that Anton’s comes from famous family you could show me a picture of him and I would think he’s just a regular 19 y/o like he doesn’t give off a “my parents are famous” vibe but he definitely give off quite orchestra kid vibes 😂😂
For me, it’s only noticeable in the way he speaks. He just sounds wealthy lmao
Me waiting for minnie 🫠🫠🫠🫠
fr😭
Surprised the Chenle wasn't mentioned...
I'm sorry but the way she kept saying Anton's name and St. Laurent..😬
Pharita from baby monster is also quite rich her house is like a palace
Anton isn’t just some nepo baby
Minji's newjeans her father was a rich business man
You use the Wrong picture of Anton's Mom
chenle grandparents are billionares
"rich" is relative. it seems your examples only show upper middle class standard. to be truly "rich," their family should have starting net worths of hundreds of millions of dollars. in this list, only loren is truly rich, because his father is a true DOLLAR MULTIBILLIONAIRE. the true RICH kids of kpop of previous generations are more low key. here's a sample of true RICH kids whose families have starting net worths in the hundreds of millions of dollars. siwon of super junior is the only son of a family that owns a pharmaceutical company and the second-biggest retail chain in korea. nichkhun of 2pm comes from a family that owns a pharmaceutical company in thailand. jin of bts has a rather mysterious family background, because there is hardly any information about his parents compared to his fellow bts members. but many people believe his father is kim nam-jung, listed in forbes magazine's "50 richest in korea" -- a dollar multibillionaire who's the major stockholder and CEO of a diversified family-owned conglomerate with interests from fishing to finance.
they re rich. millionaires etc super rich
You should’ve added Ricky from zerobaseone as he’s crazy rich but well done on the video 😊
yess!! and hao!!
hao? i doubt he's crazy rich considering how many part-times he worked in college @@Natalia-nc8iq
@@Natalia-nc8iqhao is the opposite 😭(i admire him fpr it tho)
He's not crazy rich He's okay
@@mimicaserez7388how do we know?
I get that some of them have "written" songs for their groups music but let's all keep in mind that KOMCA is never a reliable source for idols to know if they're a real or professional song writer, composer, producer & director.
Wdym by that
Yes, idols can come from poorer backgrounds, but most poor and lower middle class people simply can’t afford the risk that a job in the entertainment industry has. Most idols don’t come from millionaire families, but the large majority of idols come from middle class and upper middle class families who can afford the risk of their child entering the entertainment industry. IBeing rich doesn’t guarantee success, but it sure does help.
don't know why people crying about these idols being nepo babies.... as long as they're working hard themselves.. why should it matter? not their fault they're actually talented
Lmao chenle from nct, Jay from enhyphen and ricky from zb1
I think that a lot of netizens assume that nepo babies have no talent. But a lot of these idols are so so SO talented!!
And that’s why a lot of them don’t understand the concept of making music
2:17 you use wrong photo😢
wrong pic used for Lee Joo Young of Daelim tho 🤷🏻♀️
$6,500 a year is less than a private school in Puerto Rico or usa.
you might be overlooking this little thing called purchasing power.
@yashodhara5298 What power? I studied a public school system, and I just said for a private school that is really cheap because the public schools because 6,000 a semester is probably what is cost in en America a cheaper private scholl 12,000 by year or even more.
What happened to chaewon from lessarafim?!?!
i love antone
SM riches are talented 😏
Chenle, Jay, Jake and Niki are pretty rich too....also Sunghoon since figure skating costs a lot
Ricky from ZB1 and Rima from NiziU
*Lee Jae-wook* from Alchemy of souls : Supper handsome😘😘😘🤭🤭🤗
2:16 "former" actor? Shim Hye Jin is still active. I recognized her right away because I recently watched "Kill Me, Heal Me" (highly recommend watching btw), and Shim Hye Jin has recently acted in "Strong Girl Namsoon" (2023).
you're wrong, she has been inactive as an actress since they moved to America. it's just that his mom and the actress that you mentioned have the same name
It's also not her photo in the video
His mother name shim hye jin is correct but they put incorrect person
FINALLY someone is talkin about Løren😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Idol smart expensive rich $300,0000 and $1000,000 wow they know save money k-pop always group. 😮❤
well wonyoung's public transport thingy makes me confused as i remember watching her previous interview saying that she got casted while waiting for the train? can someone enlighten me?
She was referring to the city bus. I think Wonyoung asked a fan what is it like riding a city bus or if they have seatbelts or something like that
@@8luvbug idk about that i definitely saw a vid of her saying she got casted while waiting for a train. i should definitely look that video up again 😂
@@shanttii_yea she said she once also got casted while waiting for the subway(not starship)...also i think wonyoung family is well off but not extra rich rich like the others mentioned since she literally studied in public schools and english kindergarten wasn't even expensive back then since its literally just kindergarten not middle or high school lol
Seungmin and Changbin 😂
You need a part 2 you forgot Jay from enhypen 🤦♀️
what abt ricky? 🥲
Chenle from NCT is the first thing came to my mind hahaha
This is basic rich stuff that's nothing new or fascinating. Give me rich people buying the weirdest or stupidest stuff. That's way more of a shocker and fascinating then the usual crap rich people sink their money into. Nickolas Cage sunk some of his fortune on shrunken heads and haunted houses! Now that's crazy!
Imagine if they entered the schools with scholarships)(maybe who knows🗿)
Minni from G-idle and basically all Blackpink members? Pharita from babymonster.
They so many
I guess, Chenle is now dethroned by Anton?
Looking at the previous generation idols who also came from upper class, their talent nor their contribution to the entertainment industry is nothing worthy compared to idols who came from lower-middle class families. The idols who came from the lower & middle class brought in more significant changes in the industry like idols like them from 1st-3rd generation, they became successfull worthy actors, directors, songwriter, composer, producers, directors, stylists, make up artists, ceo & even professional musicians. No offence to the richer idols attending expensive classes for dancing, music or vocals but the talent of idols from lower-middle class families is unrivaled, their passion runs through their blood & is evident in their works.
No offense to the rich idols who just completely shaded and degraded? Lol
but i think for anton and Lia its not much like spoiled from their family as a born rich kid. They seems like they just live an ordinary life as a kid from a wealthy family. they also 'might' not use much power as a wealthy kids compared most of them stated here. thats all.
Ya he does not give off “my parents are famous and have tons of money” vibes
Wony is rich, beautiful and successful. Omo
I would like to add jungmo from cravity , enha jay , nct chenle
Ricky too
Giselle denied these rumours tho
yes she meant very rich but not very very rich
Why i find riize anton similar to jungkook
Lol u forgot to mention whole blackpink members and enhyphen jake and jay
Am I the only one who thought that lia moved to Canada for school?
Yes Anton comes from Nepotism but I can see that he works really hard to fit into his group ...Initially, he wasn't able to catch up with others in dancing....and it's understandable because imagine if your group has a pro dancer like Shotaro (and other above average dancers) it would be difficult..but he is doing really well recently...I also heard that when Anton had the cello performance at Mama he practiced till morning....yes there is a scope for improvement but he's doing very well...
I ult riize and riize is such a talented group. Anton can dance and sing so so well. He also does orchestra hes not just some nepo baby who is untalented he is actually really really talented
He was a swimmer too. Also he has improved a lot since his debut.
He is swimmer and play violen too
Ya like if you told me he’s a swimmer he plays the chello and he quiet but weird and quirky (in a good way) I would believe you it if you told me his parents were famous and he comes from a rich family I’d be like “what? Really?”😂😂
@@sarastanley2284 same 🤣 his weird actions and energy is very cute and funny
Well other than the obvious ones already stated by others we may have forgotten to add jennie on this list
ricky and chenle ????
Damn lee jooyoung is a cheobal too damn mommy is fine fine 🔥🔥
Speculation. Assuming. Stalking. Invasion of Privacy. These are the violations of people digging up everything on every idol or celebrity. For what you ask, it would be either for 1 their satisfaction 2 for later use 3 just because theyre jealous. If you are confident enough i say you will not be here.
They were like objects so they be hitting good money.
All of Blackpink 😆🤌🏻
That’s so amazing that IU and Anton are close friends!!!
The saddest thing about this is that at least one of those mentioned has no discernible talent. All the riches and opportunities handed to him has made no difference as far as success. I would so embarrassed to be in his position. Those who are actually talented and rich - but used contacts to get the initial step up - don't even offend my as much because whatever your wealth it's not unusual for families to help each other.
Here comes another one thinking calling them untalented make their achievements less valueable
@@Saanviwasmissing Music is always subjective, but read what I wrote again. Listen to the output of all those mentioned like I did. Then see if like me you did not end up thinking that one individual on that list has probably made little progress because nepotism can only take you so far.
I have also stated that if the talent is there I actually have no objection to family helping out.
I think you should mention it first that you do not have problems with idols talented and rich to start your opinion with a relatively controversial sentence might give people wrong impression
@@Saanviwasmissing Nothing I have written is remotely controversial. And no, you don't get to decide the way people organise their comments on TH-cam. Report my oh so controversial comment, offer an opinion on the subject matter or move on. It's of no importance to me.
Ain’t controversial they telling the truth and ima say names. Loren has had all that handed to him there is no reason that man should have preformed at Coachella. Music may be subjective but that man don’t have little to any impact on the music scene to even be a thought to perform at Coachella. Not to mention him even being apart of the black label and not to say his music is bad but he is nothing spectacular if he didn’t look how he looked most people wouldn’t even care about him…. Also being the first male to be featured as a saint Laurent glasses model when there are so many celebs Korean and non Korean 😂😂 and y’all really think that man ain’t use his money and connections for that let’s not play the victim game. They just saying it how it is and the truth is he is a nepo baby through and through.
richies (first)
They are rich but can't compare to siwon because he's wealthy 😂😂
To me rich background doesn't make any difference if you are not talented asf
GISELLE IS TALENTED🗣🗣
Videos like these bring nothing but hate to the idols especially the girl idols.
EDIT: My point was proven by some of the replies to my comment and some comments in the comment section.
Is this KOOKIELIT's fault or is it the netizens' fault?
@@hyunestar Lol Kookielit always make shady videos about idols or groups. It's clear which groups are her faves and the ones she doesn't like
@@hyunestarkookielit always says subtle things to shade idols. Whenever talking about most second generation groups, there’s always some sort of negative information that isn’t correct. When talking about groups not so big in the west, she clearly doesn’t care for them and shades them. When talking about idols she doesn’t like, she does all research possible so she can’t be caught shading them.
How is it especially the girls?
@@skillbopster because the kpop community is misogynistic and female idols get hate for meaningless things
Anton is both American and Korean. He is born in US and his family is simply just a normal middle-class family.
my toxic trait to hate on rich people
:)
So they're all nepo
Good they r living their best life and working hard whereas jobless haters are out here in the comments spreading hate and negativity towards them lmao so pathetic istg
Third
1:00 her English isn’t even that great she pronounces words incorrectly and tries so hard
Stop making the rich even more rich. The only talented and deserved idol in this video is giselle, a sub vocalist who has better vocals than lia from itzy as a main vocalist.
Anton also
@@BigSM_hater_pinkblood yeah i forgot to mention him
Y'all need to understand that just bc they went to a good college or kindergarten, it doesn't automatically mean that they are rich.
Korean parents do a lot for their kids' education, even having multiple jobs.
(Doesn't mean that some of the aren't rich, but also doesn't mean that they are )
Even if Wonyoung's parents are wealthy, she earned the money she has now her own with brand deals and being so popular
Also she is very lovely and always gets praises..i love her
