I hope the performers in BTS are also getting paid an equivalent share of the profits. Always seems shady these idol management groups especially in Japan.

HYBE is a publicly traded company so how much they paid to BTS is in their earnings report.
HYBE paid BTS $150 million as of July 2020, excluding stock options. After all, this is the same company that the likes of Justin Bieber and Arianna Grande work for, and HYBE isn't paying BTS any less than they pay Justin Bieber.
HYBE pay package is such that Miyawaki Sakura just fled Japan to join HYBE. Supposedly cost HYBE a pretty penny to get her released from her existing Japanese contract, but HYBE is sitting on billions so money is not a problem.

Never heard of her. Was she not able to make it in Japan?
