Leader Jeon So-yeon of the girl group (G)I-DLE showcased the wealth of a copyright mogul on 'Halmyeongsu.'
In the 237th episode of the web entertainment show 'Halmyeongsu,' released on the YouTube channel on the evening of the 23rd, (G)I-DLE appeared as guests. Under the title 'Ah~ I want to see the prince!!! (G)I-DLE, go bring the prince!!!,' they announced their new song 'Good Thing.'
'Good Thing' is a song created by So-yeon. So-yeon noted, "It contains words addressed to a cheating partner" and added, "I wrote this one too." In response, Park Myung-soo expressed envy, saying, "Why do you always write your songs yourself?" So-yeon confidently replied, "I want to earn a lot of money. I want to change my fate." The members of (G)I-DLE cheered, supporting So-yeon’s dream.
Park Myung-soo also couldn't hide his astonishment and remarked to So-yeon, "Do you have any leftover songs? I want to write one too." After pondering for a moment, So-yeon subtly suggested Park Myung-soo's idea to Shuhua, asking, "How about a collaboration with Shuhua?" Shuhua responded actively, saying, "I like it!" adding to the laughter.
So-yeon's copyright wealth was substantial enough for the members of (G)I-DLE to acknowledge it. Minnie disclosed, "So-yeon gifted me a custom microphone," shocking everyone. Even Park Myung-soo remarked, "So-yeon is cool." Miyeon added, "That's super expensive," and So-yeon revealed, "That one is worth 10 million won. I saved up to get it," further heightening the surprise.
In relation to this, Ugi pointed out, "So-yeon gave it to us suddenly, like a surprise. At the '2023 MAMA' awards ceremony, the manager suddenly handed her the microphone. When I asked, 'Isn't this my microphone?' they said, 'So-yeon gave one to each member.'" So-yeon added, "I feel so shy," which contributed to the warm atmosphere.
In fact, So-yeon drew attention for her songwriting royalties on various entertainment shows in the past. She revealed, "The most I ever earned was 1 billion won in royalties in a month," sparking conversation. At that time, So-yeon explained, "I registered 88 songs with the copyright association."
