BTS, the seven-member pop powerhouse that debuted in South Korea in 2013, stands as one of the most lucrative names in global music today. Composed of RM, Jin, Suga, j-hope, Jimin, V, and Jungkook, the K-pop act has pulled in an estimated $350 million through a wide web of income.
Touring has fueled a large slice of their earnings, as their Love Yourself World Tour in 2019 raked in roughly $170 million. According to Forbes, the band brought in around $50 million from mid-2019 to mid-2020, averaging close to $7 million per member.
Sponsorship deals have also become a key cash stream. Reports say the idols can draw in $4.5 million for endorsing local brands, with even greater figures for international campaigns. One standout—their McDonald’s BTS Meal—reportedly earned them more than $8.5 million.

Jin's net worth: $50 million
Jin, BTS’s eldest performer, has rapidly stepped into his own after completing his military duty in June 2024. This year, he’s slated to launch his debut solo world tour, titled RUNSEOKJIN_EP.TOUR.

His 2021 single Super Tuna became an online sensation. Then, in late 2022, he dropped The Astronaut, co-created with Coldplay. On-screen, Jin has starred in the variety shows Run Jin, The Half-Star Hotel in Lost Island, and Netflix’s Kian’s Bizarre B&B.

By the end of 2024, he got into major deals with Fred Jewelry, Gucci, Laneige (as its first male global ambassador), and Alo Yoga. Additionally, in December last year, the South Korean artist launched Igin, a luxury liquor brand. Meanwhile, in 2018, Seokjin also helped launch a Tokyo-style eatery, called Otsu Seiromushi, in Seoul along with his brother.
