Heebap’s YouTube revenue surprises everyone
Mukbang creator Heebap is revealing the actual monthly salaries of his employees.
On the 17th, in the 225th episode of KBS 2TV’s Boss in the Mirror, YouTuber Heebap, with 1.53 million subscribers, revealed her income. She said, “The monthly salary of company executives is around 12 million won (about US$9,000) before taxes.”
In a recent recording of Boss in the Mirror, Heebap said, “I pay my employees a high salary. I pay them around 12 million won (about US$9,000) before taxes per month,” and added, “For new recruits, the starting salary varies depending on the job, but the producers receive at least 5 million won (about US$3,800).”
Heebap’s impressive salary scale has turned the studio into chaos. Even MC Jeon Hyeon-moo, who has a long career in the entertainment industry, couldn’t believe it and said, “Employees receive 12 million won per month?” He couldn’t continue speaking for a while and jokingly said, “I can even let Heebap slap me if I was her employee.”
Furthermore, Heebap revealed his annual revenue from 2019 to 2022, excluding product placements, which amounts to 2.4 billion won (about US$2 million). She also shared that her goal for cumulative income this year is 3 billion won (about US$2.3 million). Moreover, Heebap mentioned that the advertising fee for each product placement is equivalent to the price of a mid-sized car.
Jeon Hyeon-moo couldn’t help but say, “This is a company,” Kim Sook commented, “This is another level.”
