Park Ye-jin tops annual list of highest-paid actresses

In 2022 it looked like the actress’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, she was back on top. People With Money reports on Monday (April 14) that Park is the highest-paid actress in the world, pulling in an astonishing $96 million between March 2024 and March 2025, a nearly $60 million lead over her 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 actress has an estimated net worth of $275 million. She owes her fortune to smart stock investments, substantial property holdings, lucrative endorsement deals with CoverGirl cosmetics. She also owns several restaurants (the “Fat Park Burger” chain) in Seoul, a Football Team (the “Seoul Angels”), has launched her own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderpark - South Korea), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Ye-jin) and a fashion line called “Park Ye-jin Seduction”.

The ranking is significant for many Ye-jin fans, who have been waiting for her triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
