Song Seung-heon tops annual list of highest-paid actors
In 2021 it looked like the actor’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, he was back on top. People With Money reports on Thursday (April 25) that Song is the highest-paid actor in the world, pulling in an astonishing $75 million between March 2023 and March 2024, a nearly $40 million lead over his closest competition.
People With Money’s factors
In compiling this yearly list, the magazine considers factors such as upfront pay, profit participation, residuals, endorsements and advertising work.
The Korean actor has an estimated net worth of $215 million. He owes his fortune to smart stock investments, substantial property holdings, lucrative endorsement deals with CoverGirl cosmetics. He also owns several restaurants (the “Fat Song Burger” chain) in Seoul, a Football Team (the “Seoul Angels”), has launched his own brand of Vodka (Pure Wondersong - South Korea), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Seung-heon) and a fashion line called “Song Seung-heon Seduction”.
The ranking is significant for many Seung-heon fans, who have been waiting for his triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
