Actress Hong Soo-ah made a candid confession regarding her financial success when she recently appeared in SBS's 'Dolsing Fourmen.'
During the 'Dolsing Fourmen' episode, which aired on September 3rd, Hong appeared with Solbi and No Min-woo when host Lee Sang-min expressed surprise.
"Forgive me for not knowing the success of Hong Soo-ah in China," said the host.
"She became the first Korean actress to lead a traditional Chinese historical drama after being cast as the lead in a $15 million (20 billion won) blockbuster."
Hong confirmed that it was indeed the case, stating that while she had been cast and received her signing bonus, she had not yet begun shooting.
"I do not know when shooting will start, but in China, the situation is not good enough for us to shoot. My cast friends have been preparing for this shooting for a long time. It has been delayed, but I still have the joy of being cast as the lead," said the actress.
Hong Soo-ah also responded to the hosts when asked if it was true that she only flew in first class."It is not my intention. The staff prepared it for me. I also did a lot of commercials then. I went to China a lot at that time," she said.
Responding to the rumors about her only flying first or business class.
The co-hosts continued to ask about her income, and when Tak Jae-hoon asked, "Is the pay big in China?" she said, "Yes, the shooting was an appearance fee. Chinese appearance fees are indeed much higher.I have a lot of cash," expressing her financial success with a short revelation. She also shared details of a humorous incident with a billionaire friend of hers.
"He's a really close friend. When we had dinner together, the man said, 'If you marry me, my world will be yours.' It was a joke, but it was a cool phrase," said the actress.
When co-hosts Lee Sang-min and Tak Jae-hoon asked if he might have been serious, Hong laughed, saying, "He is my close friend. Frankly speaking, he is not my style either." .
