Jay Park candidly shared insights into his copyright earnings from his hit song 'Joah', his wealth, and his approach to running a company.
On the latest episode of the YouTube web show 'Salon Drip 2' by 'TEO', released on the 29th, Jay Park appeared as a guest to discuss his stage performances, daily life, and challenges as a business executive.
During the show, Jay Park mentioned his popular track 'Joah', noting, "Even though it's been 12 years since its release, many people still listen to it, keeping its copyright earnings high." He differentiated between his songs by saying, "'Mommae' is a song people want to hear at concerts, while 'Joah' is frequently played in everyday settings."
Discussing the performance aspects of 'Mommae', Park said, "When the intro plays, people seem to expect shirtless performances or twerking." He added, "I used to rip my shirts every time, but I switched to just taking them off to save them. Recently, I've gone back to ripping them, and the reactions are similar."
Jay Park was also open about his income, stating, "I don't really know how much I've earned. My father manages my assets, and I don't check my accounts often." When asked if his father's reactions change with his income, Park replied, "Not really. I'm not particularly greedy for money; I just want to live well, so I work hard."
He also shared, "When I search my name, I find 'Jay Park net worth', which is fascinating. I've looked up international celebrities like Justin Bieber, Usher, Beyoncé, and Jay-Z too." Regarding the estimated net worth of 13 billion won (approximately $11 million) listed online, he commented, "It's not accurate, but I've been active for a long time and have assets, so it might be a bit more."
Currently, Jay Park is also the CEO of More Vision, which includes artists like Honey J and Chungha. On his role as a CEO, he said, "I have a strong sense of urgency and humility. There are times when I feel rushed, but it's manageable." He also revealed, "Our headquarters in Seoul is a five-story building with about 40 employees."
Jay Park mentioned, "My staff is honest about my hair and styling, even pointing out beard shadows," adding with a laugh, "Isn't it strange not to have beard shadows at 38?"
He also shared his plans for producing idol groups, stating, "There are many talented people out there. I don't actively scout them; most are met through connections." He added, "The current trainees were gathered through auditions or recommendations from acquaintances."
