1. [+290, -7] Don't think that male celebrities don't do this stuff too

2. [+251, -16] You can already see with T-ara as an example of them working with thugs for a concert. There's more to this than just contracts, as you can see with Jang Ja Yeon's scandal and even companies going as far as to keep several side celebrities to sponsor out in order to fund their one main celebrity. Celebrities know that their bodies are products and will sell it as a product if it means they can get in to a popular variety show, trending CF, or a lead role in a drama.

3. [+163, -2] It's a well known secret, isn't it? Even dramas and movies have been talking more and more about the relationships between celebrities and sponsors. Although of course no one will come outright and admit it..

4. [+48, -0] When I see celebrities with short work histories suddenly appear with an expensive import car and getting all these roles on TV, I can't help but think they landed themselves a sponsor.

5. [+41, -6] That's why the rich female celebrities who come from wealthy families are the cleaner ones because their parents are rich enough that they don't need sponsors.

6. [+39, -10] The reason idols and even actor trainees try to get into SM, JYP, and YG is because they don't have to resort to this... these three are famous for not being involved with it.

7. [+25, -1] It must be so hard for the stars... are they happy with the money they're making?

8. [+22, -0] I wonder who actually is involved in this

9. [+21, -0] I was going to say that it's probably not only the female celebrities who are sponsoring themselves out

10. [+21, -1] I even suspect some male celebrities as having sponsors when I see them getting some drama roles lately...

11. [+20, -0] When celebrities get a sponsor with a chaebol, that chaebol will give them everything from luxury handbags to import cars and apartments and even pay the production costs for movies and dramas. The only clause in the contract is that the celebrity isn't allowed to date anyone else for the duration of the contract.
