BTS Net Worth: How Much Each Global K-Pop Idol Member Really Earns

TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - South Korean group BTS has achieved global recognition through numerous international endeavors. Their influence within the entertainment industry has garnered them widespread acclaim from both professional critics and casual fans alike.

Riding the wave of their immense fame, the seven-member boy group sparks considerable interest, with initial discussions about their collective and individual net worth frequently stealing the spotlight.

How Much is BTS's Net Worth? 

Attributing to their recent years of monumental success, BTS has an estimated net worth of around US$350 to US$600 million. This impressive figure stems from hefty album sales, sturdy touring tickets, and lucrative brand deals. Consisting of seven members: RM, Jin, Suga, J-hope, Jimin, V, and Jungkook, BTS accumulated a massive amount of fortune from their records alone, with their songs always becoming familiar additions to both national and international streaming platforms. 

When discussing the global K-wave phenomenon, it’s impossible to ignore BTS, who are often hailed by their devoted ARMY fanbase as the undisputed Kings of K-pop. While they share the spotlight with other major icons like G-Dragon, EXO, and PSY, BTS leaves an indelible impression due to their unmatched global reach and commercial impact.

According to Sportskeeda and Finance Monthly, the group’s 2019 Love Yourself World Tour generated a staggering US$170–250 million across 62 performances. With such figures, each BTS member reportedly earned between US$3-5 million per show. Forbes further reported that between mid-2019 and mid-2020, individual members took home an average of US$7 million, underscoring their powerhouse status in the entertainment industry.

Income of BTS Members 

Although pinpointing the exact figures can be tricky, industry insiders estimate that each BTS member earns between US$10 and US$15 million annually. These impressive earnings fluctuate based on individual pursuits, ranging from solo music releases and world tours to high-profile endorsements and brand collaborations. 

As a global superstar, BTS has secured countless brand deals that also contribute to their checks. Some reports highlight the influence of K-pop idols and their marketing strategies, with a possible income of US$4.5 million for local endorsements. 

On a greater scale of success, BTS brings an estimated US$5 billion a year to South Korea’s GDP, amassed from merchandise sales, the group's inspired travel, and many other immediate effects, as per Sportkeeda. 

BTS Members’ Individual Net Worth 

Debuting from a small company in 2013, BTS's journey was far from easy. Their early days were filled with relentless ventures. After years of unyielding attempts, the group finally soared into superstardom, owing to their record-breaking hits including Butter, Dynamite, Permission to Dance, My Universe (feat. Coldplay), and Life Goes On. 

According to Celebrity Net Worth, here’s the complete look at each member’s stacked net worth:

• RM: US$50 Million

• Jin: US$50 Million

• Suga: US$50 Million

• J-hope: US$50 Million

• Jimin: US$50 Million

• V: US$50 Million
