5 Korean Actors Who Went from RICH to BROKE

These 5 Korean actors were once rich but lost it all due to various reasons. Let's take a look at Kim Sae Ron, Ahn Jae Hyun and other famous Korean celebrities who went from rich to broke.

Well for sunghoon , perfect marriage revenge picked up popularity so i hope he's fine now

[@iamweird-ei7s]

Dude Jaehyun didn't deserve that bullshit especially considering the fact that he agreed to pay in the first place but Goo Hye Sun took it to the public. She made a whole bunch of fake claims about him which were proven to be complete trash. In the end, he lost everything and people are still hating on him because they are buying Goo Hye Sun's claims. There was also a person who commented who was like I hate seeing Jaehyun and Sunghoon in dramas because they look so smug. I would like to take a moment to say wtf because honestly they got ruined for nothing soooooooo.

I would watch anything that Ahn Jae Hyun played in. He’s one of my favorite male actors. I think it’s terrible how the netitizens have treated him in Korea. Let him be to make a film career and be famous.

Ahn Jae Hyun was on I Live Alone. I found his cat acting human hilarious!!

[@usagifelton]

If there is one thing I've noticed about Korean audiences, is they love kicking their actors/stars when they're down JUST AS MUCH as they love heaping praise when they're up. At times I feel like Netizens specifically build people up in anticipation of tearing them down later. The first chick was wrong for having a DUI but the way they harped on it was abnormal, the public seemed to relish in her humiliation. As for the second guy- am I the only one who noticed that his company did NOT drop him for his multiple sexual allegations, yet the drug charge was what got him banned? Korea cares more about drug culture and its image than it does its own women! As for the divorced couple, even in her own text messages the wife revealed that she was being spiteful, but -per usual, the public was just happy to get to judge people whom they perceived to be "better" than them. It's such a toxic public culture with celebrities, in the US we let celebs get away with to much in SK (for certain things) their celebs have no breathing room because of this faux "moral high ground".

[@mareemaree5091]

Ahn Jae Hyun was the victim. Koo's crazy accusations were shown to be false and vicious. She deserved to lose her career, and it's just that she cannot seem to come back. Ahh Jae Hyun has had more success than your video admits.

[@ameliemelo92]

I guess korea don't pay most of their actors well, it is weird they don't have 200k in bank after doing all these tv shows and commercials. Another explanation is that they did not save any money because they decided to live a luxury life style.

[@npcimknot958]

Honestly these numbers are sooo low if you really think about it. Like less than 100k in a divroce@_@ and thats broke.. like wow. Meanwhile hollywood actors complaining 20 mil is below the line 😂😂😂😂

[@Mtzmtz540]

The best thing of all he lost was his best accomplishment, his toxic wife. He’s free and way more healthy. That’s more important.

[@rsingsm]

I was about to talk shit to you because based on this video it was the guy that was toxic and alcoholic but I checked more articles first, and I agree, she was the one being sus in their relationship. God, I love her in Boys Over Flowers, I love the guy too in MLFTS.

[@marksmith1226]

I know!!! You could tell the public automatically sympathize with the female because they’re always consider the victim in any scenarios. I’m glad he left that toxic waste relationship and is slowly building up himself again. I’ve always loved all his dramas and his acting was immaculate. I hope he focuses on himself until he’s ready again to find someone worthy to be with him.

[@shrutighosh8934]

​@@marksmith1226yup because most of the times women are actually the victims. You again proved to be a "man" here, because instead of defending the victim, you want a gender war and mis*gynistic comment of how women easily get sympathy when it's actually quite the opposite... Instances of women being blamed for their husbands cheating on them or being blamed for taking alimony even when the husband was in wrong, are profound. But it's ok; it's expected from men to start the gender war; they have started that anyway

[@charmie8083]

It might have been a toxic relationship, but I do think he took advantage of her fame. Yes he was a model but not so much of a famous actor. We all have different opinions and I lean more to GHS side.

[@erlin7878]

I​@@charmie8083i lean more to GHS side. What i could say is that when you are married to the wrong person, they can bring the worst side in you. This guy drives insanity to GHS thats why GHS behave this way. He is the one who pursue and propose to GHS promise her to take good care of her infront of her family but doesn't keep it up. Also, he put up an act during the marriage life show. Anyway, nobody knows what truly happened but i also lean towards GHS more. I'm also married so i do understand what your spouse can do to you.

[@user-go9jt1vm5k]

Я не знаю, насколько популярна в Корее Гу Хе Сон. С ней я смотрела только "Мальчики краше цветов". Её игра мне не понравилась. Вместе с героем Ли Мин Хо мы задавались вопросом : " Что же он в ней нашел?" Ответов не было. Ли Мин Хо своей игрой вытянул этот сериал. С Ан Дже Хёном посмотрела много сериалов. Везде играл хорошо, создавал разные образы. На мой взгляд, он гораздо популярнее бывшей супруги.

We all make mistake you not God to judge people, God forgive you for the sins you have done and you don’t even see God, but you see them, give people a chance they just have a job on TV. Do not give them a chance let them make mistake. Let them learn from the mistake.

Who is much better actress now? .. I admire Song Jieun she is sweet and adorable hope to see her again in a drama and a good singer.

[@tweet12tweety]

I loved Sae Ron In the movie man from nowhere she was an awesome actor in that movie, I'm glad she survived the accident, and hope she will be able to continue an acting career.

[@monayunita6163]

Sae Ron case is a bit difficult because she now has more controversies due to her “publicity decisions.” It also wasn’t mentioned enough that the area where she DUI have a lot of school and since it’s a weekday in the morning there is possibility she might hit someone. She is very lucky she didn’t. Otherwise I don’t think there will even a talk of her come back. But after that she also did a lot of unnecessary decisions like uploading her staged part time job. And it’s very frowned upon when you still fight so hard to receive low sentences after you did something like DUI in Korea. Yes, they expect you to just accept the sentence. She also got caught playing poker (in the gambling pub- which wasn’t illegal) and drinking after the scandal. I don’t think it really matters if she doesn’t have prior scandal. But she did many questionable decisions after the scandal. I think her career as a child actor maybe influenced her mental health. She has received many love but also hate and jealousy since such a young age. Her mom also doesn’t seem like a good guide. It was said her mom is also pretty and always wanted to be a celebrity but got pregnant before anything ever happened. So she kind of always wanted her children to be a celebrity if she can’t. One of them (Sae Ron) do become famous. So, I do feel compassion and sorry for her in a way, but she is an adult now, and I think people surrounding her wasn’t good. They keep uploading and revealing her questionable actions online.

[@bunnican333]

So many actors in the west have gone to jail being in and out of rehab and have come back to become famous. I would suggest go to another country. Good luck❤❤❤

[@usamamalik420]

Honestly, you'd better be an actor or a celebrity in any other country rather than in Korea. Cuz, you WILL be ruined or literally destroyed by K-netizens or lunatic fans on even little things. Lol, you can literally be hated for a villainous role you played. Like, imagine if Voldemort was made in Korea. His actor would literally be loathed for the role he played.

[@user-go9jt1vm5k]

Говорят. что от любви до ненависти один шаг. В Корее это расстояние ещё меньше. Любого могут смешать с грязью, даже если повод ничтожный. Скольких довели до суицида? Их вина заслуживала смерти? А развод, это не преступление.

[@juristv9686]

These actors should give a second chance to have a good life. This is the reality in sokor that if someone made a mistake they will banned immediately. Everyone deserves a second chance but knetz are toxic. No wonder most of them get suicide😔

No matter how many stupid things we do if we learn the lessen and not repeat they can then again get on their feet. Kim Sae Ron is too talented an actress to be left in the dust. The agency that picks her up will gain rewards in future.

[@cindypoole6792]

That's crazy, that no one was hurt in the DUI. Just look at Tiger Woods and all his DUI issues. I compare Korean scandals to US scandals and they just don't compare. I absolutely LOVE SungHoon, a must watch "Perfect Marriage Revenge".

[@monayunita6163]

If Tiger Woods is from Korea, he will also got scrutinized and lost all of his advertisements deals. Plus the country might don’t want him to represent their country anymore. So he will have to go outside and play for other countries. Same thing happened to Korea’s national volleyball players. The twin sisters bullied people back in their high school days. It’s not only verbal but also physical. People also expect they still bullied people in the nation team albeit maybe not physically, they might talk bad about others and being very bossy. Since Korea wasn’t very strong in Volleyball, losing 2 of their best players really hurt their chances to win, but they still ask them to be excluded forever.

[@sumayyahadetunmbi4347]

@@heystobitifoundthejams2211 most of the things she was accused of has been proven to be wrong. Rumors were just spread unnecessarily just to soil her name more with the ex-boyfriend scandal. Though she and her ex-boyfriend were having conflicts and issues but that was not the reason why he acted the way he did in that with the girl's generation idol. Most of the issues he has were actually from his agency not seo yeji at all. It just seems like someone tried to set her up to take the eyes away from what the agency is doing to the guy. Anyway Seoyeji may not be a saint, but she is not as bad as what the media was proclaiming then. Some of these media are now coming to say that most of the thing posted about her then was untrue.

[@StayCalmStayFocused]

I hope Saerong gets back to her career. Everyone has been stupid when young to some degree. I'm sad about Yoochun. He is a talented entertainer. But, he might need to turn to a different career now. Too much baggage. It's very sad that the divorce of GHS and her husband had such massive and frequent public humiliation events - I'm believe the guy did lots of unpleasant stuff, but GHS exhibited many super psychotic displays that ended up destroying them both. Just sad. I am happy that things are looking up for Sung Hoon! I loved his first drama and his role in Faith (The Great Doctor). Whether a person is a public figure or not, the deadly combinations of arrogance, materialism, and living beyond one's means is destroying many lives every day.
