As controversy over the actor’s salary grew, Studio Dragon, the production company behind the K-Drama, came out to set the record straight. According to the production team, the actor made nowhere near that amount.

It is absolutely not true that he gets paid ₩800 million KRW (about $597,000 USD). He gets paid much less.
