some of the highest-earning korean idols, for example g-dragon, receive multimillion-dollar annual incomes in album and concert sales. on june 25, 2015, sbs's "midnight tv entertainment" revealed that g-dragon earned an annual kr₩790 million (us$710,000) from songwriting royalties alone. idols can also earn revenues from endorsements, merchandise, corporate sponsorship deals and commercials. according to "the korea herald", once a k-pop music video attracts more than a million views, it will "generate a meaningful revenue big enough to dole out profits to members of a k-pop group."
