IU Tops List of Wealthiest Female K-pop Idols in 2024, Jisoo Ranks Sixth

In a recent report published by NUBIA Magazine, 2024 has brought forth a new list of the wealthiest female K-pop idols. Topping the list is none other than the multitalented IU, who boasts an impressive net worth of $55 million. This achievement can be attributed in part to her ability to produce and compose music, as well as the significant royalty advantage she receives from having written over 50 songs for her own albums as well as for other artists, dramas, and films.

IU's success has certainly set a high bar for other K-pop figures, but it seems that BLACKPINK's Jisoo has managed to achieve quite an impressive feat as well. According to the report, Jisoo has a net worth of $29 million, making her the richest member of the popular girl group. This puts her in the sixth place on the list of the 10 richest female K-pop idols of 2024.

Weibo netizens were quick to react to the news, expressing their admiration and envy for Jisoo's wealth. "早就是young rich and beautiful," wrote one user, highlighting Jisoo's status as a young, rich, and beautiful idol. Others also praised her for her talent and hard work, with one user stating, "这是一位不仅手拿双顶奢品牌全球大使,自从解约后个人资源不断,正在进行两部影视拍摄的girl。"

However, some users also pointed out that wealth does not equate to happiness and that Jisoo's success should not overshadow her other accomplishments. One user wrote, "我们不应该只看Jisoo的财富,而应该关注她在音乐和演艺事业上的成就。"

It is interesting to note that despite being the richest member of BLACKPINK, Jisoo's net worth is significantly lower than that of her fellow group members Lisa and Jennie, who are also among the top 10 richest female K-pop idols of 2024. This has led some fans to question the accuracy of the report, with one user writing, "这是真的吗?我觉得Jisoo不可能这么富有。"

Despite the controversy surrounding the report, it is clear that Jisoo has made a name for herself as a successful and talented K-pop idol. Netizens will no doubt continue to follow her career with great interest, as she continues to achieve success both in music and in acting.
